Do you feel a foreign body sensation in your eyes after taking off your contact lenses?

In order to make their eyes look more beautiful, many women who love beauty usually choose to wear colored contact lenses. However, everyone knows that colored contact lenses are best worn for two or three hours, and not for too long each time. Do not rub your eyes with your hands. Some people have foreign objects in their eyes after taking off their colored contact lenses. In fact, this is usually a symptom caused by conjunctivitis. It is best not to wear colored contact lenses. If you have to wear them, it is best to choose colored contact lenses produced by regular manufacturers.

What are the dangers of wearing colored contact lenses frequently?

All cosmetic contact lenses are harmful to the eyes. It is best not to wear them, because there are many harmful effects of wearing cosmetic contact lenses frequently:

1. Cause corneal staining

In order to save costs, many cosmetic contact lens manufacturers only use two layers of film instead of three layers. They directly brush paint on the inner layer of the lens and then bake it to dry. If consumers wear them for a long time, it is likely to cause corneal staining.

2. Eye congestion and inflammation

Wearing colored contact lenses, due to excessive chemical ingredients, may cause congestion and inflammation of the eyes due to bad wearing habits, eye sensitivity and weather reasons.

3. Permanent blindness

Wearing cosmetic contact lenses for a long time can cause corneal hypoxia, deformation and eye infection, leading to serious eye diseases such as corneal perforation and even permanent blindness.

4. You may get corneal inflammation

People who wear contact lenses and cosmetic lenses will have corneal inflammation to some extent, because they will interfere with the normal metabolism of the cornea and also affect the metabolism of tears.

What are the problems with cosmetic contact lenses?

1. The eyes cannot adapt

Cosmetic contact lenses will prevent the cornea from contacting the air, and the eyes will not be able to metabolize normally due to lack of oxygen, which will reduce resistance. No matter how big the brand or how good the quality of the cosmetic contact lenses are, there are risks. Even cosmetic contact lenses with high oxygen permeability and high water content cannot meet the physiological requirements of the eyeball.

2. Quality varies

The quality of cosmetic contact lenses sold on the market varies greatly. The purchasing channels of some merchants are unclear, and there are even second-hand cosmetic contact lenses mixed in the market. However, because cosmetic contact lenses have no "degree" and only have a certain "decorative" function, they are not subject to the same strict market access supervision and management as glasses. Even if a merchant is found selling second-hand cosmetic contact lenses, there are no relevant "penalty" regulations.

Precautions for wearing colored contact lenses

1. If you must wear colored contact lenses, you must first disinfect and clean them. Also, wash your hands carefully when wearing them. Wash your hands at least twice with soap under running water.

2. Be extra careful when removing or putting on the lenses to avoid causing damage to the eyeball and cornea.

3. If you feel eye discomfort after wearing them, take them off in time. If you have any eye discomfort, you should go to a professional hospital for an eye check to ensure that you have no eye disease before wearing them.

4. If your eyes become dry after wearing the contact lenses, do not use the usual eye drops. Go to an eye store and buy special eye drops for cosmetic contact lenses.

5. Do not wear the contact lenses immediately after buying them. Soak them in care solution for four hours first.

6. If your nails are too long, trim them to prevent them from scratching the lenses.

7. Cosmetic contact lenses are close to the eyeballs, so you should not rub your eyes while wearing them, as this can easily damage the cornea and cause eye diseases.
