It may be related to the wearing method or eye sensitivity. So what should we do?

What to do if your eyes hurt when wearing contact lenses

Methods/Steps

In our daily wearing of contact lenses, many wrong wearing methods and wearing habits will cause eye pain when wearing contact lenses, but this situation can be avoided. As long as we wear them in the correct way and pay attention to the cleaning and care of the contact lenses, it is completely possible to avoid eye pain when wearing contact lenses.

Of course, there are many possible reasons for eye pain when wearing contact lenses. Wearing the contact lenses upside down or getting dust into the eyes when wearing them may cause eye pain when wearing contact lenses. Therefore, we need to pay attention to the front and back of the contact lenses when wearing them and ensure that the lenses are clean.

If you are a first-time contact lens wearer, it is normal to experience eye pain when wearing contact lenses at the beginning, because contact lenses need time to adapt. If the eye pain does not subside after wearing contact lenses for a period of time, you should go to the hospital to check whether your eyes are not suitable for wearing contact lenses. There are many low-quality lenses in the contact lens market now. Low-quality lenses will definitely be uncomfortable to wear. Their manufacturing process is not up to standard, and consumers cannot be guaranteed to be comfortable and healthy during use.

1. Try not to wear contact lenses for more than 8 hours a day. 2. Pay attention to hygiene, otherwise your eyes are prone to infection and inflammation. 3. Contact lenses have poor oxygen permeability. It is fine to wear them during the day, but wearing them overnight will cause your eyes to lack oxygen and suffocate. 4. Please do not use any eye drops when wearing contact lenses, because the ingredients of eye drops will accumulate on the lenses, which will not only make the lenses hard and reduce their transparency, but also irritate the eyes. 5. Do not use tap water, distilled water, mineral water, or preservative-free saline to rinse and care for lenses. Because these solutions do not have cleaning and sterilization functions, long-term use may cause your lenses to become moldy or deformed. 6. Every time after taking off the lenses, use the care solution to carefully rub the front and back of the lenses in a radial pattern to clean them. Please do not neglect to rub and clean the lenses, because doing so can remove most of the dirt and bacteria on the lenses.
