As the first heat wave comes to an end, summer continues, and this season can be extremely damaging to the eyes. During these sunny days, people are more likely to go outdoors and to water locations such as the sea and pools, which can intensify harmful UV radiation.

Risks of Using Contact Lenses

Experts strongly warn against using contact lenses during this season. They believe that using these lenses in summer conditions can lead to serious complications for the eyes. Given the increased UV exposure and the likelihood of contaminated water entering the eyes, these risks are particularly heightened in water settings.

Although wearing sunglasses can help protect the eyes, neglecting safety precautions can lead to permanent damage. Therefore, for individuals who use contact lenses, it is essential to emphasize adherence to hygiene practices and to avoid hazardous conditions in the summer.
