Warning for contact lens users .. “dangerous” with this common disease

Eye doctor and surgeon Igor Aznorian has warned of the dangers of wearing contact lenses when you have a cold that damages your eyes and exacerbates the cold.

And the agency “Sputnik” quoted the doctor as saying that after infection with a viral infection in 1-1.5% of cases, eye complications begin.

"If the cornea is affected, for example, vision may become blurred," he added.

According to the doctor, at the first signs of a viral infection, such as a runny nose, cough, or sore throat, you should stop wearing the lenses.

He said: “A lot of people stay in contact lenses, especially those who don't stay at home while sick.

It should be borne in mind that under contact lenses, complications in the eye are several times more difficult in order of magnitude.”
