Can you wear contact lenses while swimming?

It is not recommended to swim with contacts in because it puts you at risk of multiple eye problems, including dryness, irritation, and serious infections which could ruin your vision and harm your eye health.

Not unless your lenses are made specifically for overnight use. Sleeping with contact lenses designed for daytime use deprives your eyes of oxygen. It also increases the chances of infection and corneal abrasions.
