Most of us in Kenya have suffered red or itchy eyes at one point in life. With the wind and dust menace facing our city of Nairobi, our eyes are bound to react at some point. There are even some of us who face other visual conditions such as myopia otherwise known as short sightedness and hypermetropia also known as long sightedness. Short sightedness in Kenya refers to the visual condition where you cannot fully focus on objects far away while long sightedness in Kenya refers to the condition where you have a hard time focusing on objects that are close to you. These two conditions are dependent on where the image is replicated in your eye, either before or after the retina.

It is likely that if you suffer from any of these conditions in Kenya, the ophthalmologist will suggest that you wear corrective lenses for your disorder. You could also opt to wear contact lenses to correct your sight. Eye glasses in Kenya are sometimes recommended for people who have high reactions to either wind or dust. There are also some special eyeglasses in Kenya that contain photo chromatic lenses that regulate on the amount of light that gets to your eyes.

Finding a worth the while optician in Nairobi is a herculean task. Most of the opticians all over the city of Nairobi are quacks looking to get easy money and of course worsen your eye condition. It is vital that you identify an experienced optician to help you find the corrective lenses best suited for your condition.
