Can you wear your daily wear contacts for more than one day?

Question

I wear Focus Dailies, and I plan on being at the pool a lot, and anyone who wears contact knows you wear an old pair to the pool, however these contacts are not cheep, so I am wondering if anyone know if it is possible to wear them for an additional day, and if so did you notice any major changes in your vision with them past that first day? Thanks!!!

Answer 1

You should rest them or clean them that night just to be safe. Its just some solution and your lens case.

Answer 2

you can wear them as long as they're 'good'. i can't wear my contacts in the pool at all, can't see anything the moment my eyes get wet. You could also have a pair of swimming contacts.

Answer 3

No, never re-use the lenses esp at the pool.

Answer 4

It works ok for me to wear them more than one day. Just remember to keep your eyes closed under water lol

Answer 5

You can, but you shouldn't. You could sustain corneal abrasion and that's not fun.

Answer 6

when you wear them in the pool they stick to your eyes which is not good for your pupil.  it also makes your contacts go bad quicker  i used to wear mine to the pool to and i will never do it again.  i only get one set of eyes and i wont take a chance

Answer 7

Of course it's possible to overwear contacts and you shouldn't notice too much of a change in vision.  It also increases your risk of infections and eye damage, just like swimming in contacts.
