How can I overcome dry eyes while wearing contacts? I can't wear them everyday. About 10 years ago I could.



Is there a lens designed specifically for that? I wear Accuvue Advance w/Hydraclear.

actually, you should not wear your lens everyday. your eyes need a rest. if you wear your lens everyday, ur eyes have high chances of developing complications.

as u have mention, last time you could wear your lenses for everyday, however now u cant. this is because ur eyes have reduced tolerance of contact lens. this is 1 of the many complications you may get.

if you still continue to wear them everyday, and when your eyes develop complications, it may result in you not able to wear your lenses forever or in serious cases you may even lose your eyes.

give your eyes a break.

ways to overcome dry eyes:
- use non preservatives eyedrops

- when eyes feel dry, take out the lenses and soak them in saline for 2-3 minutes and wear them on again.

- dry eyes may also be due to insufficient nurtients, consider taking some nutrient suppliments

- reduce your wearing hours

- change another brand of contact lens Source(s): me(optometrist)
try 02 optix, they market they let 5 times the oxygen to your eyes.
