Contact lenses have been a boon for people looking forward
to a reasonable and cost-effective mode of vision correction. Not only do
contact lenses ensure crisp vision but also provide color transformation.
Contact lenses have helped women but seldom have they prevented blindness expected
from a sudden accidental mishap as was reported in China.
A women mistakenly instills super glue drops in her eyes at
place of her usual lubricating drops and have had her eyes completely sealed. Fortunately,
no significant damages were reported as her contact lenses had prevented the
direct contact of glue with her eye ball. Since one of her eye was glued, her
eye doctor carefully spent an hour separating her eye lashes and eyelids to keep the damages as less as possible.
Doctors suggest patients to be careful when dealing with eye
care medications. Experts warn consumers to store eye drops and art tools at
the same shelf/drawer. To prevent the mishaps, always keep eye drops at a handy
– easy to reach place whereas art & craft essentials (including nail art accessories) on the other hand
should always be stacked and stored in a cupboard, away from your dressing or
bedside table where you usually resort to, when in hurry for rewetting drops.
Also, it is recommended to always read the label carefully to prevent confusing eye drops with any other liquid. It is not
necessary that wearing contact lenses will also make you fortunate enough to
escape narrowly from permanent blindness like the Chinese woman in discussion.
