Contacts help please?

Question

I'm going to Hurricane Harbor today and I am really blind without my contacts. I was wondering should I wear my contacts or would I probably get a eye infection? (I thought about bringing my glasses but I'm afraid I'd lose them.)

Answer 1

I went to hurricane harbor 3 weeks ago, and I've only had contacts for about 2 months, and I had no troubles keeping them in. Just make sure that when the water is flying at your face (like on body slides) that you keep your eyes closed, and don't open your eyes under the water at all.. I lost a contact swimming when I first got them! :) Have a great time!

Answer 2

You should wear your contacts, just don't open your underwater or when water's coming at you because they could easily slip out of your eye. But if you're going under say something like a giant bucket, maybe that isn't the best idea. Always make sure you wipe your eyes a little before you open them. :)
