Can you wear your contacts overnight?
I am a 17 year old male. I want to know can you wear your contacts overnight?

Only special ones called orthokeratology. They are only worn while sleeping and removed during the day. They correct your vision while you sleep. Most eye doctors don’t recommend sleeping with soft contacts because that increases the risk of infection
It depends on the lens material and prescription but usually not recommended anyway.
It is our strong advice that you should not sleep in your contact lenses. Although contacts may be advertised for 2 weeks or 30 days, we see very serious medical issues resulting from patients who overwear or sleep in their contacts.
No. Wearing contact lenses over night can cause serious issues to your eyes.
We do not recommend
You can damage your eyes.
I do not recommend sleeping in any contact lenses. This is a recommendation from the CDC also.
