What eye drops should I use for contact lenses?

Most people experience dry eyes when wearing contact lenses, so they want to relieve eye fatigue by using eye drops. Many people don't know this and put their usual eye drops into their eyes. In fact, this is wrong. Eye drops are different from contact lens care solutions, and their functions are different. Don't confuse them. Contact lenses require special eye drops.

First of all, I want to make it clear to everyone that you cannot use eye drops when wearing contact lenses. Contact lenses are mostly negatively charged, while many eye drops contain positively charged substances. The positively charged substances in the medicine are easily precipitated on the lenses due to the attraction of the negative charge of the contact lenses. Some of these sediments are mist-like, which will change the refractive power of the lens and make the wearer see things blurry; some are granular, which will rub the cornea, causing a foreign body sensation in the cornea, and even damage the cornea, resulting in secondary keratitis.

Therefore, you cannot use eye drops while wearing contact lenses, and if you want to use eye drops, you need to remove the lenses.

1: Eye drops should not be put into the eyes while wearing contact lenses, otherwise it may cause sediment on the lenses and cause discomfort when wearing. 2: General eye drops cannot be used as eye lubricants. In addition, when using eye drops, it is best to remove your contact lenses, otherwise the preservatives or impurities contained in the drops will remain on the surface of the lenses and damage your eyes. 3: Some people feel dryness and stinging when wearing contact lenses, so they go to the pharmacy to buy eye drops on their own. Most users are not clear about the functions of the ingredients in the drops and are prone to misuse them. Therefore, when buying eye drops, you must pay attention to the functions of various eye drops and do not buy them casually.

4: Contact lens lubricating drops can be dropped into the eyes while wearing contact lenses. They have the function of lubricating and moisturizing the lenses.

Precautions

Contact lens lubricating drops are used when your eyes feel dry due to wearing contact lenses. They can relieve eye fatigue caused by wearing contact lenses, making your wearing more comfortable and your vision clearer. However, it is still recommended that you do not rely too much on eye drops, and it is best not to use them more than 3-4 times a day.
