could i wear my contacts if they've been dried out?!


Question: Could i wear my contacts if they've been dried out?
i haven't wore my contacts in about 2 months and when i was about to wear them again, i found out that my contacts had been sitting in the case with no solution. So i cleaned it 3 times and it's now soaking in solution. would i still be able to wear them?

no



don't take the risk You might get away with it as some people here have , but there is quite a high risk of your eyes becoming infected. The lenses will also be less able to transmit oxygen to your eye which in many ways is a higher risk than infection. Its just not worth taking risks.



I say if you don't have any other option then yes. I left my contacts out for a while and they dried so I put them soaking in the solution for a couple days. Just make sure you do not touch the contacts when its dry, it will damage the lens



you should be able to wear them so long as you can still see out of them and they dont hurt when you put them in

personal experience



No. buy a new one!
its ur eye. take good care of it
