Eyes


Question Posted Wednesday July 23 2008, 10:54 am

I have contacts, and I wear o2 optics power 2.50 contacts that you wear for 2 weeks removing them before you sleep. With these contacts you only wear them for a few hours at a time, then you switch to glasses. My glasses are broken and they havent been fixed yet, and I'm running low on contact solution. I end up sleeping in my contacts for many reasons, and I wear them all day. At times I wear them for more than 2 weeks even. When I take out my contacts I feel like my vision is getting worse, but I usually always have felt like this. A few months ago the doctor said my retina was thinning, but that its not a big deal because African American eyes usually do that. My dad said my eyes were completely normal but it kind of freaks me out. I'm 14/ f and I'm wondering why you arent suppost to wear contacts to sleep, or too often. I know there are contacts you can sleep in but what makes them different from ones you "can't" sleep in?

No contacts are good to sleep in. There are contacts that you CAN sleep in but they aren't GOOD to sleep in.

You usually aren't supposed to because it could more easily cause an infection, make your eyes dryer, make your eyes appear red and bloodshot, and my eye doctor always told me it just wore your eyes out eventually over time.

The contacts you CAN sleep in usually are made differently, and have more of an absorbing feel, that way they won't be as dry as other contacts would.

hope i helped. let me know.

You can sleep in them OCCASIONALLY. But no like, every night.
