If the patient is not careful enough when wearing contact lenses, the patient’s eyes may be damaged.
If contact lenses are worn continuously for too long or are worn while sleeping, they can prevent the corneal tissues from taking in oxygen from the air, which can cause corneal hypoxia, leading to corneal epithelial edema and other hazards to the patient’s eye health.
When wearing or removing contact lens lenses, if the patient’s movements are rough, it may bruise the cornea, causing corneal epithelial damage and jeopardizing the patient’s eye health.
If the patient does not wash his/her hands when removing contact lenses or if the lenses are not kept hygienically, it may lead to eye infections such as conjunctivitis and keratitis, which may jeopardize the health of the patient’s eyes.
It is recommended that contact lens wearers who experience eye discomfort should seek medical attention in a timely manner to assess their condition and follow the doctor’s instructions for treatment.
