Can I use eye drops with my lenses?Updated a day ago

Yes, in theory BUT it’s important to make sure you’re using eye drops that are specifically designed for contact lens wearers and that you seek advice from your optical specialist first.

Not all eye drops are safe to use while wearing your lenses. Some can contain preservatives or other ingredients that may damage the lens material or irritate your eyes. Always check the product label — it should clearly state that the drops are “contact lens friendly” or “suitable for use with contact lenses.”

If you’re unsure which drops are best for you, it’s always safest to speak with your optometrist or optical specialist first. They can recommend the right type based on your eyes and the lenses you wear.
