Is it safe to put a contact in after I have dropped it?!


Question: Is it safe to put a contact in after I have dropped it!?
When I took out my contacts tonight, I dropped one of them in the sink (I'm in college, by the way, so it's a community bathroom)!. Will I be okay putting it in tomorrow after it's been in the solution overnight!?

I just really don't want to get sick since I'm in the midst of finals week right now!.Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Generally, the solution will kill any bacteria that could have collected on the lens!. If you wear it for a period of time and it bothers your eye, just replace it!. You should be in the clear, though!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

!.!.!.i think you'llbe okay just make sure you wash it with solution really well (You should have done this before putting it in the case) and before putting it in and i think you will be fine!. You won't get sick (unless someone on your floor has pink eye or something) i think the solution will kill pretty much anything!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

As long as it's disinfecting solution and you let it soak for the recommended amount of time, it will be fine!. The disinfecting solution will kill the nasty germs from the sink!. By the way, the sink is probably dirtier than the toilet!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

use a good disinfecting solution recommended by your doctor!.!. if you are REALLY paranoid!.!.!. use a hydrogen peroxide cleaning solution like clear eye!.!.!. but be warned!!!

DONT PUT THAT STUFF IN YOUR EYES DIRECTLY OR ON YOUR LENSES!.!.!. YOU MUST WAIT 6 HOURS BEFORE YOU WEAR THE LENSES AGAIN!.!. FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY!!!!Www@Answer-Health@Com

normally nothing should happen since you have followed what should be done Www@Answer-Health@Com
