Each person has a unique eye shape and contact lenses are specifically fitted to an individual. If the contact lenses are too small, they will feel uncomfortable and tight and have the potential to rupture blood vessels in the eye or cause other, potentially serious, damage If they are too lose, they might fall out. Additionally, it is unlikely another person's prescription will work for you. Sharing lenses also increases the risk of spreading diseases. You have no way of knowing how hygienic someone else's lenses might be. If you need contacts, see an eye doctor and get a pair that are specifically made for you.

Can wearing contacts that aren't yours hurt your eyes?

Yes, wearing contacts that aren't yours can hurt your eyes. Contact lenses are fitted specifically for each person's unique eye shape, and wearing someone else's contacts can cause discomfort, blurred vision, and even increase the risk of eye infections.

Why does your eye hurt after wearing contacts?

Your eyes should not hurt after wearing contacts. In fact you shouldn't even feel discomfort! You need to wear your contacts less and glasses more. Also get some more sleep. Your eyes shouldn't hurt after wearing contacts. The first time when you wear contacts, your optometrist is suppose to give you a trial pair. If there was any discomfort during the follow-up appointment, (the week after you said you wanted contacts) then he/she will be giving you another brand and another until the optometrist ran out of brands to give you to try in his/her office. Then he/she would tell you that you can't wear contacts at all (never happen)

Short answer, no. Long answer, kinda? When you first get them, it takes time to get accustom to wearing them. During that time, your eyes will encounter some irritation, but not pain. The temporary irritation is well worth the benefits.


Can you have contatcs when your 12 years old?

Yes I have contacts and I am 12 yrs old and I got them when I was 10 - but I don't wear them very often because they kinda hurt my eyes but that's my opinion you will have to try them out to see how they feel - also contacts seem to make my eyes look better so I like wearing them on special occasions - hope this helps :)

Yes they will hurt your eyes. Over the counter contacts have been proven to harm the eyes and at 12 your eyes are changing all the time. The ones you could afford would be so cheap and bad that you could harm your eyes for years to come. This is a bad idea.
