Contacts?

Question

I just got contacts and I forgot to ask if I can nap in them. I have the monthly ones that are thick because I have a stigmatizim. I just had twins and I'm pumping every three hours and I really need to get in some naps before I go insane. I really don't want to take them out and put them in 20 times a day. It took me 30 minutes to put them in this morning I'm still learning.

Answer

I'm a very bad contact user as I rarely take them out, I sleep in them all the time. I've had my current contacts in for a couple months...Prolly not good for my eyes

Answer

I nap in mine all the time! Sometimes I'll need to put some eye drops in but other than that I have never ever had problems.

Answer

My brand says I can wear the same pair for a month. Awake and asleep. However I don't recommend it. You can build up protein (weird I know) which sticks to your contacts and can scratch the insides of your eyelids.  Naps every now and again are fine, you'll probably wake up with dryer eyes, but as long as you don't go to bed wearing them night after night you should be good. When you take them out be sure to rub them well with solution to get off any excess gunk before you store them for the night. Hope that helps!

Answer

I can not nap in mine. I never sleep in them either. For one, it dries my eyes out. And I rub my eyes in my sleep and have rubbed them behind my eyes. It's painful and hard to get out of my eye then.

Take precautions! If you don't feel comfortable wearing them overnight, don't!

Answer

My DH sleeps in his all the time. I used to nap in mine, I don't wear them anymore cuz I need a new prescription, but the Only time you shouldn't sleep in them is when you go to bed for the night.

Answer

It's not recommended to nap in them but a lot of people do. You can use eye drops when you wake up or they sell these really good gel drops that would help if you put them in before you nap. I don't ever sleep in mine and I developed a condition where I had blood vessels growing into my cornea. I had to stop wearing contacts for a year to try and heal it and if that wouldn't have worked I would've had to have a cornea transplant 😖I still wear contacts now but they're some special brand that are super expensive 😕 I wouldn't recommend putting the solution directly into your eye, definitely have eye drops handy. Good luck and congrats on the twins 😊

You should just call your optomitrist & ask. (:
