Many of us wear contacts and accidentally fall asleep with them in. That could be very dangerous for your eyes, could develop infections and possible vision loss. In order for your eyes to remain healthy and appear white your eyes require oxygen. You may also scratch the lining of your eyelid and get dry eyes, your eyelids may also stick to your cornea if you have dry eyes. Once you wake up and try to open your eyes, you may rip off some of your cornea’s epithelium which leads to corneal abrasion and pain. Protect your eyes and take your contact lenses out before falling asleep.
