Wearing cosmetic contact lenses is not advisable. Frequent use may lead to prolonged oxygen deprivation in the cornea, easily resulting in various complications such as corneal infection, corneal damage, or corneal allergies. Extended wear may cause eye discomfort, light sensitivity, tearing, redness, and even corneal ulcers, potentially leading to permanent blindness.
