@emsie.finds: It only took a splash of water. Please look after your eyes. I’ll never see out of that eye again, you can prevent that by taking your contacts before swimming, showering or even washing your face. Please share to as many people as you know that wear contact lenses. You may just save their sight. ❤️

My optician told me not to wear lenses even in the shower or washing my face because there may still be still be bacteria from the taps etc n can cause infections etc, the lenses have to be sterile!

So like… did you get water in your eye and just kept your contacts in until you got the infection??? Or get water in your eye and you took them out instantly??

I wear daily contacts and I know the risks are the same but please don't wear monthly lenses, they're not recommended usually because the risk of infection is higher

I’m genuinely asking this out of curiosity. I wear dailies and I swim in my pool and shower with them in all the time. What am I supposed to do when going in the pool, just sit there blind and get a migraine from my blurred vision? I don’t understand how this happens if you take out your contacts that evening.

Genuinely is there any safe way us blind people are able to see if we’re in the ocean or do i just succumb to whatever it throws at me

I always shower with mine in 😭 should I really be taking them out? My vision is terrible It would be hard to shave without seeing but also if I went blind I wouldn’t be able to see at all… should I take out when I shower???
