Make the most of the last days of summer with ACUVUE® contact lenses
Summer’s not over just yet. With August Bank Holiday on the horizon, there are still plenty of opportunities to soak up what’s left of our favourite season.
Lifestyle and vision
Can you swim with contact lenses?
Optometrists recommend that contact lens wearers follow the “three S rule”: don’t swim, shower or sleep in your lenses.
Why? Because all three can lead to irritation, and in some cases, serious infection. Water can carry all sorts of pathogens and parasites – the most dangerous being acanthamoeba, which attaches to your contact and works its way into the cornea. In very severe cases acanthamoeba infections can cause loss of vision.
