Wearing contact lenses makes me feel a little blurry

Colored contact lenses are contact lenses with cosmetic effects. Wearing them makes people’s eyes look very big and bright. Contact lenses are close to our eyeballs, so it is easy to feel a little blurry when you first wear them. There is no need to worry if you encounter this phenomenon. You will be relieved once we understand the specific reasons. Let’s take a look at the reasons why people feel uncomfortable wearing cosmetic contact lenses.

When you first put on cosmetic contact lenses, it may be because there is more fluid in the eye when the lubricant is first dropped. The lubricant seeps into the space between the lens and the eye, forming a liquid lens. This lens, when superimposed with the power of the original lens itself, exceeds your appropriate power, so it will be blurry. At this time, you just need to blink your eyes. Under the action of pressure, the lubricating fluid is squeezed out from between the lens and the eye, so the liquid lens disappears temporarily and your vision becomes clear again.

In addition, users who wear cosmetic contact lenses for the first time will feel very uncomfortable because the cornea is lacking oxygen, so the eyes need a period of adaptation to get used to this new partner. When we look at close objects, our eyes will instinctively adjust. The closer the working distance, the greater the adjustment force required. After looking for a long time, the eyes will feel tired and even the vision will become blurred.

In addition to the above reasons for blurry contact lenses, there are

Myopia progression or whether the lens brightness is sufficient. If it is insufficient, re-eye examination should be considered.

Check if there is serious sediment on the lens. Try cleaning or replacing the lens.

The refractive power of the left and right eyes is different. Are the left and right lenses worn upside down? You can try swapping their positions.

If the wearer has presbyopia, try reducing the lens power or wearing reading glasses when looking at close objects.

There are large jelly blocks, protein or mold deposits in the optical area of ​​the lens

Blurred vision immediately after blinking means the lens is too loose. Try reducing the base curve of the lens or increasing the diameter of the lens.

Things to note when wearing colored contact lenses:

Buy cosmetic contact lenses at a regular eye store.

Colored contact lenses are sold everywhere now, but don't buy them in small shops as the quality of the contact lenses there is not guaranteed.

Go to a regular eye store to buy cosmetic contact lenses, check their quality, manufacturer, etc., and read the instructions carefully.

Soak your contact lenses in care solution for four hours before wearing them.

Don’t wear your cosmetic contact lenses immediately after buying them. Soak them in care solution for four hours first.

It turns out that the liquid in the bottle of contact lenses is irritating and bad for the eyes, so you still have to soak them before wearing them.

Some people are allergic to the chemicals in contact lenses, so soaking them first is necessary.

Wash your hands before wearing contact lenses.

Before wearing cosmetic contact lenses, you should wash your hands and dry them to prevent bacteria or dust on your hands from contaminating the cosmetic contact lenses and then contaminating your eyeballs.

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

Do not rub your eyes when wearing contact lenses.

Cosmetic contact lenses are similar to contact lenses in that they both fit closely to the eyeballs. Therefore, you should not rub your eyes when wearing cosmetic contact lenses as this can easily damage the cornea and cause eye diseases.
