Eye Drops

Certain eye drops can be used with contact lenses. Many contact lens wearers use rewetting drops to make their contacts feel more comfortable. However, some eye drops should not be used with contact lenses.

Medicated eye drops are rarely intended for use with contact lenses. Thus, if you have an eye infection such as pink eye, your best bet is to avoid contact lenses while using prescribed eye drops. Similarly, if you are using medicated drops for allergies or have an eye injury, it’s best to avoid lenses.
