How bad is it to keep your contacts in at night?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
I would soak them.: As a contact wearer for many many years, it is always best to clean and soak the contact lenses overnight. In this way the contacts are cleaner, they last longer, and your eyes have a chance to heal and recover from contact wear.
