Hello. I use contact lenses from about 3 months. Lately I read an article about corneal ulcer, and that contact lenses users should be aware of it. I would like to ask, is it THAT dangerous to use contact lenses?

  1. overall risk of such a problem is statistically higher when wearing contacts, but contacts are generally safe if you do everything right.  

    they become unsafe and the risk of an ulcer-like event occurring goes WAY UP when:

    you sleep in them

    you dont throw them away in the recommended time period

    you dont store them in the right stuff

    you dont clean them as suggested

    you wear contacts that were not Rx'd by a doctor
