Question
hi I'm 19 and have been wearing contacts for 2 years, but recently i got lazy and stopped wearing them for a couple of months. i still have about six months worth of contacts that haven't been opened yet. is it ok to still wear them or should i order new ones?
Answer
Hi Karyssa,
Probably it's OK. There should be an expiration date on the lens label and usually it's years of shelf life. Providing your eyes are similar and you use fresh solution and clean case just don't wear them to long too soon (if you have an older opened bottle of solution even if the date is OK don't use it b/c it has been opened and may be contaminated).
