why are my contacts blurry

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  • An outdated or incorrect prescription means lenses don’t focus light properly, causing blurriness.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.
