Article Synopsis
- Contact lenses (CLs) are popular among users for correcting vision but there's often a lack of knowledge about their risks and proper care, prompting this study to assess awareness among CL wearers in Saudi Arabia.
- The survey conducted with 393 women revealed that most learned about CLs from friends; the majority used them for social occasions, and dry eyes were a common side effect.
- Regular CL use was notably low (16%), influenced primarily by medical and cosmetic reasons, with findings suggesting a need for further research on the safety and effects of CL wear.
