Not All Contact Lenses Are Safe for Your Eyes – How to Choose the Right Medical Lens

Contact lenses are no longer just a tool to correct vision or enhance appearance — they’ve become part of the daily routine for many women. But here’s the question rarely asked: Are all lenses truly safe for your eyes?

The simple answer: No.

Choosing the wrong lens can lead to issues ranging from irritation and redness to serious infections or corneal damage. That’s why it’s crucial to know how to select a safe medical lens — especially if you have sensitive eyes.

What Makes Some Lenses Unsafe?

Poor oxygen permeability to the cornea.
Low-quality materials that cause dryness or allergic reactions.
Lack of medical certification or quality assurance.
