A member asked:
Can i use my contact lenses a day after my corneal abrasion feels normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Contact lens wear: Usually when the eyes are back to feeling normal and the patient has been off antibiotics for 48 hours it should be safe to resume contact lens wear ( with a new contact) if the contact could be implicated in the source of discomfort. Such is the case of infection, rather than abrasion.
