Those who have presbyopia, please admit it. And those who have problems wearing glasses during exercise or activities, such as glasses breaking during soccer, glasses legs breaking during basketball, or not being able to hit the shuttlecock without glasses during badminton, all these problems will disappear with just... Oh my God, George, it's amazing... If you call within ten minutes... Uh, I don't think so!

For individuals with vision problems who engage in sports or other strenuous activities, there is a simple solution. In March, I participated in an event called "Cycling for Change," organized by Cycling Plus magazine in collaboration with ACUVUE contact lenses, a Johnson & Johnson Vision company. The event, held in Pak Chong, Khao Yai, attracted a large number of cyclists.

"Ride, Share, Change" embodies the concept of cycling, a popular fitness trend, sharing kindness by donating money and providing snacks to students at the Makutkiriwan School for the Blind, and lastly, changing the perspective of vision for those with vision problems. ACUVUE contact lenses make everything easier and change the way people think about eye care during exercise.

This three-day, two-night trip began at the Baan Aios Resort in Khao Yai, located on Thanarat Road next to Palio. The group of cyclists were lively from the morning, with the highlight being the five beautiful female cyclists, including two actresses: Whan Whan Arunnaphun and Aey Aey Waratchaporn. Those who are fans of Thai dramas would likely recognize them.

Near the starting point, there was an ACUVUE booth offering guidance on contact lens use. As I have excellent eyesight, I did not participate in the trial; however, many of my fellow bloggers did, as did several ladies who were interested in wearing contact lenses to enhance their appearance. Experts were on hand to provide guidance at every stage, demonstrating that wearing contact lenses is no more difficult than wearing glasses.

ACUVUE products currently focus on daily disposable contact lenses, also known as daily lenses, as they are considered the safest option and provide easy hygiene for our eyes. Those who are interested in trying them can simply walk into any leading optical store and inquire.

While we were busy trying out contact lenses and inquiring about various knowledge from ACUVUE experts, the group of cyclists had already set off. Their destination was PB Valley. To be honest, I couldn't handle the ups and downs of long-distance cycling on this occasion. It's not that I didn't have the strength, but because I don't know how to ride a geared bicycle like this. It would be easier to walk (laughs...).

It was time to hop in the van and follow the group of cyclists for about 20 kilometers (cheating, clearly). In no time, we arrived at P.B. Valley, where we started our easy ride. It was a simple, enjoyable way to get some light exercise.

Enjoy a leisurely bike ride through the scenic vineyards of P.B. Valley, stopping to sample local wines, fresh juices, and admire the melon fields. When you've worked up an appetite, take a break to enjoy a delicious lunch.

After that, we cycled to The Bloom flower garden next door, and then took a tuk-tuk back to the resort to check in to our beautiful room. I took some photos of the hotel to share with you. This is my first time staying here, even though I've passed by it many times before.

Ah, this place is owned by the same people as Palio. It's very convenient to walk around. I'm going to take some pictures. It's still a great place to bring someone as a model (lol...)

In the evening, we enjoyed a buffet at Palio, where there was a Bike Talk stage for exchanging experiences with skilled cyclists, including the editor of Cycling Plus magazine, an expert in vision (he used the term optometrist) from ACUVUE, and of course, our two celebrity female cyclists. It was a feast for the eyes.

Despite not having any vision problems and not being a cycling enthusiast, I gained a wealth of knowledge about eye care, maintaining health while playing sports, and various exercise concepts that can be effectively applied to mountain hiking.

On the second day, the cycling group rode to the M.K.K. Blind School, located on the Khao Yai-Wang Nam Khieo Road, about 20 kilometers from Palio. Upon arrival, they engaged in various activities, including donating money and providing lunch for the children. While these actions may seem small, they can collectively create a significant impact over time.

Focusing solely on the activities of our cyclists is preferred. We must respect the rights of our disabled participants.

After completing their mission, the cyclists gathered their strength for one final push to return to the resort. The sight of the path ahead made them gulp, as the steep, long stretches were no joke. Hats off to the cyclists, especially the ladies, who deserve my utmost respect.

This concludes the "Ride, Share, Change" activity organized by Cycling Plus magazine and ACUVUE contact lenses.

While I personally do not have vision problems, I have spoken to those who do, and they have told me that wearing contact lenses instead of glasses makes it much easier for them to participate in activities and sports. It is truly commendable that ACUVUE has shifted its focus to fitness enthusiasts and those who enjoy active lifestyles, demonstrating that vision problems do not have to hold us back.

Even I feel that I have benefited greatly from this activity. For those with vision problems, such as nearsightedness and astigmatism, it would be fair to say that they have found a bright and clear solution.

Oh my God, George, it's absolutely fantastic! Let me tell you...
