A member asked:
Can the wrong contact lens product for me effect my eye health?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Contact lenses must be fit to your eye. Like clothes, contact lenses come in different sizes and shapes. A poorly fit contact lens may be uncomfortable or not allow good oxygenation to the cornea. In addition, each type of contact lens has specific wearing parameters to reduce the risk of infection or inflammation and to increase the comfort and vision.
