Can I wear contact lenses in the shower?

[Hopkins]

I don't want to take off my contacts. Can I have a shower with my contacts in?

[Minster]

Dear friend, I suggest you to take off your contacts before you want to take a shower. You may get the shampoo into your eyes when you are washing your hair. Then there may be chemical reactions between your contacts and the shampoo. If the surface of the contacts is not smooth anymore, your contacts will not correct your vision problem.

Guy, if you can close your eyes all the time when you are taking the shower, I think you don't need to take off your contacts. But usually we will take off the contacts for few of us will close our eyes during the shower. if you are showering with your contacts in,the contacts may slip off your eyes and drop to the ground. The bacteria on the ground will pollute your contacts and cause eye infection if your use the contacts again. We can't use the polluted contacts anymore so we should buy another pair of contacts.
