After being in the pool for a while, your eyes could look red and irriating. Many will say it’s the high chlorine concentration, but red irritated eyes are caused by sweat and urine in the water according to the CDC. In order to remove bacteria, swimming pools are cleaned with chlorine. If you wear contacts it’s highly recommended to not wear any if your vision allows you to swim safely. If you do decide to swim with your contacts in, make sure to cover them with goggles and throw away the lenses if they get wet.
