Questions about Contact Lens?

  I have a few questions about Contact Lens.
  
  
  I have sensitive eyes but I want to wear contact lens because I need to attend a wedding soon so I need to look good during that day.
  What type of contact lens is suitable for sensitive eyes?
  And I am also looking for contact lens that will improve my eyesight instead of causing my eyesight to deteoriate further, is there a contact lens that can help me to improve my eyesight after wearing it, but at the same time, is suitable for my sensitive eyes?
  
  
  And last but not least, would wearing Coloured Contact Lens damage my eyes?
  My mother said that wearing colored lens will end up damaging the eyes. Is it true?!

  u cannot just suddenly wear lens for 1 day

  u need to get used to it

  start now

  go to ur optometrist to check the curvature

  diff brands diff curvature and water content

   

  wearing contact lens actually slows down the myopia compared to wearing glasses
  but ur eyesight will not "improve"
  unless u old oredi and become �花, them your myopia will go down

   

  i swear by biomedics 38/55

  This is probably regarding the recent news about poor quality color lenses. Color lenses by themselves do not affect eyes in any way. It is only because for those lenses, the solution they were kept in was not sterilized and hence bacteria was able to thrive in them.

  Hi Ts, I am ex optometrist. :)

  Normally we suggest those with senstive eyes to wear for soft contact lens. You can try Acuvue Oasys.

  Coloured contact lens won't damage your eyes. It's nothing related. Just the coloured difference.

  Hope all these will helps. :)
