They&#8217;re typically used for nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism, or presbyopia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are two main types of contact lenses:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Soft Lenses<\/strong> \u2013 made of flexible plastics that allow oxygen to pass through.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Rigid Gas Permeable Lenses<\/strong> \u2013 more durable and provide sharper vision in some cases.<br><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Wearing contact lenses involves more than just placing them on your eyes. It requires proper hygiene, usage, and care. Poor habits can lead to eye infections, dryness, corneal damage, or even vision loss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>7 Common Contact Lens Mistakes<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>1. Sleeping with Your Lenses On<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Many people fall asleep wearing their contacts, especially after a long day. But unless your lenses are specifically designed for overnight use, this can reduce oxygen supply to your cornea. It increases the risk of infections like keratitis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Tip<\/strong>: Always remove your lenses before sleeping unless prescribed for extended wear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2. Not Washing Hands Before Inserting or Removing Lenses<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Touching your eyes with unwashed hands is an easy way to introduce bacteria and dirt into your eye. This can lead to redness, itching, and infections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Tip<\/strong>: Wash your hands with soap and water, and dry them with a lint-free towel before handling your lenses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>3. Overwearing Your Lenses<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Some users wear their lenses longer than recommended, hoping to stretch their use. This weakens the lens structure and puts your eyes at risk of oxygen deprivation, discomfort, and complications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Tip<\/strong>: Stick to the schedule prescribed\u2014whether daily, bi-weekly, or monthly replacements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>4. Using Tap Water or Saliva to Clean Lenses<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Tap water and saliva contain microorganisms that are harmful to your eyes. Using them for cleaning can lead to severe infections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Tip<\/strong>: Always use a sterile lens solution for cleaning, storing, and rinsing your lenses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>5. Skipping the Lens Case Hygiene<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>A dirty lens case can harbor bacteria that transfer to your lenses and then to your eyes. Neglecting the case can cause recurring infections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Tip<\/strong>: Clean your lens case daily with contact lens solution (not water) and let it air-dry. Replace the case every 1 to 3 months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>6. Ignoring Expiry Dates<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Expired lenses or solutions may no longer be sterile and could introduce contaminants. Using them can cause irritation and increase infection risks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Tip<\/strong>: Always check expiry dates and avoid using products beyond them\u2014even if they \u201clook fine.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>7. Wearing Lenses While Swimming or Showering<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Water from pools, showers, or hot tubs can introduce bacteria like Acanthamoeba, which can cause serious eye infections that are difficult to treat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Tip<\/strong>: Remove lenses before swimming or wear waterproof goggles. Avoid wearing them in the shower.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Symptoms to Watch Out For<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"650\" height=\"460\" src=\"https:\/\/www.laxmieye.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/contact-lens-wearers.jpg\" alt=\"contact lens\" class=\"wp-image-1112\" style=\"object-fit:cover;width:700px;height:403px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.laxmieye.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/contact-lens-wearers.jpg 650w, https:\/\/www.laxmieye.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/contact-lens-wearers-300x212.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.laxmieye.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/contact-lens-wearers-120x85.jpg 120w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Even with careful use, contact lenses can sometimes irritate the eyes.

Stay hydrated and avoid dry environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>6.

Can contact lenses get lost behind my eye?<\/strong><strong><br><\/strong> No, it\u2019s anatomically impossible.
