How do people who can’t see well swim without contacts?

737 viewsOther

You’re not supposed to sleep, shower or swim with contacts. Sleep- easy. Shower-fine I imagine. But how do people who can’t see swim? I don’t see people (ie adults) wearing goggles at the beach or pool unless they’re long distance swimmers. Do people wear prescription sunglasses to lounge in the pool? Like what is the deal?

I just don’t typically open my eyes under water. Keep my hands in front of me if I’m swimming under water. Goggles also work. I have opened my eyes under water and had no issues. But I wear my extended wears all day everyday till they fall out. So they usually have a good suction to my eyes.

Also, I get my eyes image tested and whatever else kind of add on tests they can do during my 1-2yr check up. Always comes back healthy eyes.
