Understanding and Managing Contact Lens-Related Dry Eye
For many contact lens wearers, dry eye syndrome can be a frequent and frustrating problem. Understanding how contact lenses contribute to dry eyes and how to manage this condition is essential for maintaining both eye health and comfort. This article provides tips for contact lens users on managing and preventing dry eye syndrome, highlighting the importance of incorporating products like Regener-Eyes into their eye care regimen.
How Contact Lenses Can Cause Dry Eyes
- Reduced Oxygen Supply: Contact lenses can reduce the amount of oxygen reaching the cornea, which can lead to dryness and irritation.
- Tear Film Disruption: Wearing contact lenses can disrupt the natural tear film, leading to increased tear evaporation and dry eye symptoms.
Tips for Managing Dry Eyes with Contact Lenses
- Follow Proper Lens Hygiene: Always clean and store your lenses according to the manufacturer's instructions to prevent irritation and dryness.
- Choose the Right Type of Lenses: Opt for contact lenses designed for dry eyes or those made from breathable materials.
- Limit Wear Time: Reduce the number of hours you wear contact lenses each day to give your eyes a break.
- Blink Regularly: Make a conscious effort to blink more often while wearing contacts to help maintain tear film stability.

“Thank you for such an amazing product!
I have been struggling with extremely dry eyes for several years, and in the last year, it became debilitating. My doctor and I have been trying to determine the cause and how to fix it. As we worked through solutions and different options, he suggested your PRO strength product. I was skeptical at first. I wasn’t sure how another eye drop was going to help when all the others had failed.
I was advised that it may take a month or more to start seeing results. I felt the results from the first drop! My eyes started healing, and I was relieved of the severe dry-eye discomfort. After a couple of weeks, my results have been even more amazing. My eye prescription is much better than what I needed before using the drops. I am not seeing double or experiencing blurriness. Objects appear clearer, both up close and far away.
I look forward to using the PRO drops because each time, my eyes are soothed and feel better and better. At my last eye appointment, one eye had a complete reversal of where I was just three weeks ago. The other eye also had remarkable improvement and is no longer so severely dry and uncomfortable.
So, thank you again for such an amazing product. I look forward to continued healing and clearer sight.”
