Hazards of wearing contact lenses


1. Risk of blindness for contact lenses

Scientists warn those who use contact lenses can blind eye if suffering from a parasite commonly found in tap water. Acanthamoeba parasite is potential enemy for people using contact lenses. According to experts, the protozoan parasite small often found in tap water, dust, sea and swimming pools. We can fatten themselves by eating the bacteria exist in the contact lens dirty. When the lenses parasite is attached to the human eye, Acanthamoeba started to erode the cornea, the outer layer of the eyeball and thrive, flourish. The consequences of the attack of the bacteria will be the symptoms of eye irritation, lacrimation life, blurred vision, sensitivity to light, swollen eyelids and eye pain.

2. Corneasamoeba were eating  from wearing contact lenses

Recently the British scientists have warned of a corneal eating amoeba can cause blindness for people who wear contact lenses. Professors in the UK has concluded the parasite named Acanthamoera is a single-celled plants likely found in soil, water and the pool, inflammatory corneal blindness. Anyone can be eating amoeba cornea, but at the risk that contact lens wearers compared with those without the glasses. If you see a group of symptoms include eye pain, redness, eye sensitivity to light and blurred vision must be to the establishment of ophthalmology to be diagnosed and treated promptly.

3. Permanent blindness by wearing colored contact lenses

Colored contact lenses often have excessive chemical composition, combined with the bad habit of wearing glasses or eye sensitivity to weather can cause a blockage in the eye, ocular inflammation, lack of oxygen. Hypoxia seriously deformed eye and eye infections, causing serious illnesses such as eye and corneal perforation risk of permanent blindness.

Not only that, the color of the lenses also reduce eye sight because depending on the material of the lens.

4. Reduce the resistance of the eye

Blackout contact lenses can reduce corneal relationship with air. Eyes like the human body, oxygen should be provided. If the contact between the eye and the air hampered leads to lack of oxygen, as eyestrain and reduce the resistance of the eye.

5. Reduced corneal sensation

Colored contact lenses with lens attached to the eye in the long run will lead to nerve paralysis as a result of decreased sensation in the cornea leading to corneal ulcers.
