A member asked:
Is it okay i wear monthly contactly lenses for more than 1 month?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A little more: If the contact lens is comfortable and you are seeing well, you can extend the wear another week or two at the most. Overwearing contact lenses increases your risk of infection and inflammatory conditions such as keratitis and giant papillary conjunctivitis.
