Is it okay to play sports with contact lens in?

Absolutely...: One of the great things about contact lenses is the freedom they give you when playing sports. They can also improve your performance depending on what kind and how great your refractive error. Remember though, glasses do offer protection, especially in racket sports and other sports where there might be contact with flying objects, fingers, etc. Do not forget to wear eye protection as needed.

Contact lens: and participating in sports are generally ok. Would recommend that you have your eyes checked annually . If you're concerned about or have further questions about your vision you should discuss this with a sports physician to see if eye protection should be worn based on the sport you play.
