Man Wore Three Pairs of Contact Lenses

A Chinese man had to have his contact lenses surgically removed after he didn't take them out for a whole year.


Lense-tastrophy

Mr. Liu had never taken the lenses out because he found it too difficult. After nearly 12 months of wear he began to feel his eyesight deteriorating, so he bought another pair of lenses and wore them on top of the old ones. When that failed to help, he put a pair of used contact lenses over the other two pairs, so that he was now wearing three pairs of lenses. The following day, his eyes reacted so badly to his makeshift optical treatment that he finally sought medical help, and a doctor found that the first lenses actually grown into his eyes.
