That's about what I thought. I usually do wear goggles when I swim, but we will be getting a swcg with our pool, so of course, I want to see if it is easier on the eyes like everyone says - guess I'll have to do it without contacts though.

Re: Contact lenses under water
I wear soft contacts and always swim with them and always open my eyes. Haven't lost one yet.

Re: Contact lenses under water
When I wore contacts, I always swam with them because I was extremely nearsighted and couldn't make it into the pool with out them. I wore hard contacts and soft,never lost a one. I had Implanted contact lenses placed 8 years ago...too blind for Lasix...they work great BUT now I cannot see a thing under water ,goggle make it a bit clearer but not much. My eye doctor tried to explain why, but over my head!
Re: Contact lenses under water
My husband has opened his eyes in our pool with his soft lenses in. I'm too much of a chicken to open my eyes with or without my contacts in (unless I'm wearing goggles), so I have no personal experience.
