Sharing Contact Lenses Can Be Dangerous

While everyone knows that getting a deep cut and not cleaning and treating it can lead to infection, so can sharing contact lenses.  The difference is that you don’t need a deep cut to get an eye infection from a pair of cheap contact lenses.  Contacts often times, when shared, get tiny particles of dirt on them.  That dirt can’t be seen, but can scratch your eye.

Other contacts aren’t designed for your eye and can leave you with blurry vision and could cause you to fall down and get a cut and then get a normal infection.

The Capital Blog has a great article about Ohio stopping the selling of colored contact lenses.  Check it out.
