Eyes with a new color and perfectly tanned skin. That’s heaven for fashionistas. The eyes, as we know, do not change color automatically or naturally. Something has to be done with them, and the same goes for tanned skin. So where do the two meet, you might ask. They meet when you go out in the sun to tan with your glasses on because you need your glasses to see clearly and you need to be in the sun to tan.

There is no problem sunbathing with contact lenses on. They can withstand so much heat. However, you may feel slight discomfort in your eyes due to inflammation of the cornea, which makes the lenses fit more. As a result, temporary eye irritation and redness may occur. You should not worry about that, just put some kind of lubricating liquid in your eyes before going out to reduce friction between the lens and the cornea, reducing eye irritation.

Additionally, you may also consider wearing glasses to prevent harmful UV radiation from damaging your eyes. UV rays are very damaging to the eyes and have been found to promote cataracts and other serious eye diseases.

Despite all precautions, if your eyes persistently redden, don’t ignore it. It could be something as simple as an allergy to lens cleaning solution or pollen or dirt. But on the other hand, it could also be indicative of insufficient oxygen supply to the eyes. Either way, you should see your ophthalmologist right away to find out the cause and solution.

Don’t forget that although they are used as cosmetic accessories, contact lenses are primarily medical devices. Therefore, the correct way to use them is under medical supervision. Therefore, before and during the use of contact lenses, keep your ophthalmologist informed. Do not make any decision regarding contacts without consulting a specialist. He is the best person to seek advice.

Eyes are precious, don’t take chances with them.
