Contacts can appear blurry for several common reasons:
- Dirty lenses with protein or debris buildup can cause cloudy vision. Proper cleaning with contact lens solution helps clear this.
- Dry lenses due to insufficient hydration or dry eye syndrome can warp lenses or make them less clear. Rewetting drops or changing lens type may help.
- Incorrect lens positioning or wearing lenses inside-out can blur vision.
- An outdated or incorrect prescription means lenses don’t focus light properly, causing blurriness.
- Wearing contacts beyond recommended time can reduce oxygen flow, causing lens fatigue and blurry vision.
- Environmental irritants, allergies, or eye infections can affect clarity.
If blurry contacts persist after cleaning and repositioning, consult an eye doctor to check your prescription and eye health.
