Recently popular TV actress Jasmin Bhasin suffered corneal damage due to contact lenses.
The actress temporarily lost her vision and endured significant eye pain. Let's explore the dangers associated with wearing contact lenses.
Contact lenses can lead to issues such as blepharitis, conjunctivitis, keratitis, and corneal abrasion.
These conditions can cause intense eye pain, blurred vision, and watery eyes. If not treated promptly, these problems can worsen over time.
It’s crucial to handle contact lenses with care. Improper cleaning can lead to severe infections, even from minimal contact. The risk of infection is lower with disposable lenses.
Extended use of contact lenses can lead to dryness in the eyes. People are unaware of this dryness, but symptoms include persistent watery eyes, redness, and light sensitivity.
Many people forget to remove their contact lenses before washing their faces, working out, or sleeping. This can be very dangerous.
Doctors advise wearing lenses for no more than 7 to 8 hours. Prolonged use restricts oxygen flow to the cornea, increasing the risk of infection.
