Does optive lubricant eye drops safe to use as an eye drops while wearing contact lens?.

Not the best: You can use it but it may gum up the contacts if you use it a lot. Instead, use contact lens rewetting drops. They are sold in the same place as the optive and are labelled "for use with contact lenses".
