Can wearing contacts age your eyes...from always pulling down on the delicate skin under your eyes??


Question: They say under your eyes is very delicate, so can putting in contacts everyday age your eyes?
Answers: Not really, it can if you pull really hard and press down real hard, apply gently without too much pressure!
Well, I have worn them since 1977, and my eyes don't look as old as some people the same age.
I don't think it has any affect.
No way. I've worn contacts for 15 years & have no aging yet.
I shouldn't say this because I insert my lenses in a different way from what I was originally taught. I don't pull down my lower eyelids. Instead, I pull my eyelids wider apart and insert the lens directly on the cornea. It really doesn't bother me to put my fingers on my eyeballs. I learned years ago not to flinch.
No it can't your eyes are accustomed to getting dust and such inside them they are tougher than most people think my sister just got contacts and we had the similar question but they do not

NOPE
good question but i seriosuly dount it. if that the case do people that wear glasses have even more risky skin under the eyes due to glasses blocking the suns rays
i don't think so...there is other things that you need to worry about. you heard so many myths about contact lens.
i heard that this guy went to bed with his contact lens and woke up and it moved to the back of his eyes..and stayed there for days...
this happen to me a couple day ago: i rubbed my left eyes and i tho i rub my contact len off. so i took my right one off. but at the middle of the night i felt something in the back of my left eye....a couple of hrs. i felt it coming out of my eye..it was disgusting..so dirty and bend in half....


just be careful,,,lucky me. the contact len came out and i didn't get an infection
