If you are wearing the contact lenses for the first time, you should obey the following timetable: no more than four hours in the first day, no more than six hours in the second day, no more than eight hours of the third day and no more than ten hours of the fourth day. In the fifth day, you can wear it within 12 hours, but the regular wearing time for the ordinary contact lenses is 8 hours. For the rigid gas permeable contact lens, the wearing time is between 10 and 12 hours, so it all depends on the oxygen permeability of the contact lens.
