Sinking With Contact Lenses

[Mynock]

Sorry for any confusion, my concern was not protecting my eyes, that's never been an issue for me.
What I wanted to know was if wearing contacts while sinking could cause issues. Since two people so far have chime in saying no I think I'm good without the goggles.

I wore contacts for years without issue. They were forbidden at first where I worked because of the supposed threat from particles of what we produced getting in there. That was finally dropped because it just wasn't a problem. Never had mud trouble with them but glasses were a fight just because of sweat always being in my eyes and couldn't get to them.

Got my first trial set today, was a bit of an adventure getting them in but wow......I'm kicking myself for not doing this sooner! Thanks again to all who provided info!

Touching your eyes feels only weird the first couple times. After that it's a normal routine.
Have fun sinking!

I should start making a habit of using my disposable contacts more when sinking. I like being able to see when I'm almost going under... not to mention that the mud already claimed a pair of sports glasses that at the time, I only bought a month previously...

This. My Astigmatisim is so bad I'm basically blind when I take mine off. It's gonna be an interesting experience sinking with 20/20 vision for the first time.
