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

728 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?

You basically go blind or wear glasses to the pool and then take them off and get in. I’m super short sighted and while it takes some enjoyment out of it most people can swim and play fine without glasses. Just wont catch balls well or read signs.
