Contact Lens Hygiene Tips from the AOA

[xXLaurelx]

Omg i just got contacs and I can see perfectly in distance but when I look at my computer or iPod or phone it's blurt for a second then gets clear. Is this a form of getting use of!? Please help!

[PorcelainTrampBby]

@xXLaurelx Yes, that's normal... you'll just have to get use to it ;)

[nholt]

Pointless. No detailed instructions. Useless.

It's better to use a Q-tip to clean the lens so you don't scratch it.

[lilsugert]

is it true the can melt inside the eyes??

[spongey100]

@lilsugert nahh, but it can dry out.

[ihategoatwhore]

Why can't you swim with them?

[razor005]

BEcause there are chemicals in the water of the pool that would damage or irritate your eye and the contact would just hold onto these chemicals and keep them against your eye.

[spongey100]

@razor005 they might fall out.

[razor005]

@spongey100 Yea they may fall out. But at the same time the contacts just might stay in and get the chemicals on them. Which would irritate your eye until you took the contacts out.

[Wingblade900]

@aplayaz2000 and for gods sake make sure u use a lint free towel... if the lint gets onto the contacts and u put it on... lets just say my eyes felt like they were burning by the end of the day...

[hollseey]

i got 2 corneal ulcers in my left eye from wearing contact lenses with a tiny scratch on.. i didnt even realise but didnt stop wearing the lense when i saw my eye was a bit red.. nearly lost my eyesight and have to wake up every half an hour to do eyedrops for the next few months (since about 3 weeks ago now) the pains gone but my eyesight is still messed up in the eye.. wish i'd thought.

seriously, everyone - FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS. i wish i had!

I love my contacts

[lovelyana26]

great video..

[DesignerDigital]

Since ok, I still scared on getting contact lenses, (love my eyes to much)

[hollseey]

as long as you do what you need to do, contact lenses are not at all dangerous to the eye, and before any proper damage is done you can usually tell by redness

[abzii323]

ahhh dis is freakyx

[gracearchitect22]
