Sometimes, blurred vision can simply not be prevented, however, you can adopt certain practices to look after your eyes, lowering the risk of causes related to lifestyle:

• Schedule regular eye tests and contact lens check-ups to keep track of your prescription and eye health.

• Incorporate foods that are good for your eyes into your diet, including leafy greens, fresh fish and fruit, and avoid high blood pressure and high blood sugar.

• Opt for UV contact lenses to protect your eyes from harmful UV rays, paired with good quality sunglasses.

• Avoid smoking or drinking heavily to lower your risk of developing eye diseases down the line.

• Wash your hands for 20 seconds with clean, warm water and dry them with a lint-free towel before putting on or taking out your contact lenses to avoid nasty eye infections.

• Avoid sleeping with contact lenses, unless advised by your optician and if you’ve chosen a longer wearing pattern, store them in a multi-purpose solution.

• Swimming with contact lenses or showering with contact lenses is not advised, as bacteria from the water can become trapped in your eyes, possibly causing an eye infection or eye conditions down the line.

• Follow the wearing pattern and eye care routine that your optician has recommended.

• Choose protective goggles when swimming, skiing, playing extreme sports or doing any DIY activities.
