How Do Soft Contacts Feel?

Published in Contact Lens Sensation 1 min read

Soft contacts, especially today's advanced silicone models, are designed to feel soft and painless, eventually becoming unnoticeable once your eyes adjust.

Initial Sensation

When you first wear soft contact lenses, it's common to experience a slight awareness of their presence. You might notice the edges of the lenses for the first few times you put them in. This initial feeling is typically mild and not uncomfortable.

Adjustment Period

Your eyes are incredibly adaptable, and they will quickly become accustomed to the feeling of the contacts. This adjustment period varies for individuals, but most people find that any initial awareness of the lenses rapidly diminishes.

Long-Term Comfort

Once your eyes have fully adjusted, soft contact lenses are designed to be so comfortable that you'll often forget they're even in place. The goal of modern soft contacts is to provide clear vision without any sensation of a foreign object in your eye, allowing for all-day comfort and natural wear.
