Eye dryness and irritation while using contact lenses are common problems and may happen due to reduced tear production, long hours of lens wear, poor lens hygiene, sleeping with lenses, or using lenses beyond their replacement schedule. Sleeping with contact lenses can reduce oxygen supply to the eye and may cause corneal scratches or infections, leading to severe pain, redness, watering, and light sensitivity. Lacryl Ultra eye drops help lubricate the eyes and reduce dryness. Continue using them as advised by your eye doctor. It is better to switch to glasses temporarily until the irritation and dryness improve. Some people can safely resume contact lens use later with proper care, while others with persistent dry eyes may need to limit lens use. For safe lens use, always wash your hands before handling lenses, avoid sleeping in them, clean and replace them regularly, and avoid wearing them for very long hours. Drink enough water and include foods rich in vitamin A, omega-3 fatty acids, lutein, and zinc, such as carrots, spinach, fish, nuts, and eggs. Myopia usually cannot be permanently cured, but its progression can be slowed with proper eye care, regular check-ups, controlled screen time, and spending more time outdoors.
