Swimming With Contact Lenses - Use Goggles

According to a new study, wearing swim goggles over contact lenses while swimming can reduce the accumulation of bacteria on contact lenses and may thereby reduce eye infection risk for swimmers.

Although there are always risks swimming with contact lenses in (lakes, rivers, ocean, and pools), it's now been proven that wearing goggles reduces the level of bacterial accumulation on the lens, and likely reduces the chances of eye infection. This is good news for myopic hydrophilics but keep in mind it's safer to get prescription swim goggles.
