Patients can wear contacts that are designed to be changed and replaced every day. These are the so-called âdaily wearâ contacts and they are the most popular option.

To a certain extent, this depends on the characteristics of your eyes. Your optician will be able to discuss with you what is best in your individual case, but as a general point, it's recommended that you wear your contact lenses for a maximum of 10-12 hours per day. Wearing your lenses for longer may cause your eyes to become uncomfortable, red and prone to infection.
