At least 60 percent of Americans require some sort of help to read whether it be glasses, contact lenses, or other sorts of visual help. But for those that use contact lenses, using them for prolonged periods of time can truly harm the eye and cause lengthened eye health issues. Some lenses even have the ability to change the eyes’ organic structure, or at other times acting as a ‘suction cup,’ that can even possibly scratch the cornea. And when not cleaned properly, dust, bacteria and other debris can also cause damage to the eyeball. Depending on the type of contacts that you use, be sure to always discuss the proper way to use them and clean them.
