Contacts: Who's wearing them under their goggles and who isn't?
At my last eye exam, my dr. sternly lectured me about the evils of swimming with contacts. When your goggles leak, which seems inevitable, the chlorine seeps in the lens, contaminates it and can thereby irritate your cornea.
I wore contacts my whole youth without incident, but now I notice some dry eye and redness. The problem is I don't like most prescription goggles.
What does everyone think? Anyone whacked out an eye?
I wear my contacts with my goggles all the time. I never really have problems with water getting in so it just works for me. I did take the time to try about 20-30 different types of goggles before I found the ones that work for me. They happen to be TUSA Snipers. They're the best goggles I've ever used (been swimming for about 28 years). I had single pairs last up to a year.
