I've been wearing them for 25 years, and they changed the trajectory of my life. You know what else is overrated? Self loathing.
Being able to play sports and like the way you look are healthy. My eyesight seems to be doing ok, too.
- goldenkey 4y agoOccasional use for sports and events is okay but as a consistent vision substitute, they are pretty unhealthy. Eyesight won't suffer from contacts - it's the corneal surface that will.
- darkerside 4y agoWhat is the impact?
- goldenkey 4y agoIn some cases, permanent scarring. This would be noticed as an indentation in the cornea, that can occasionally cause some itchiness but would generally be asymptomatic. https://eyeguru.org/essentials/corneal-abrasions-ulcers/ https://eyeguru.org/essentials/corneal-abrasions-ulcers/ It's extremely rare but sometimes the ulcers can cause vision impairment. With contacts, the ulcers are generally ring shaped, and not anywhere near the actual focal plane, thus, they are only superficial, even if they end up scarring.
