I know that a lot of us wanted to look better. And in this highly advanced era, people have created ways on how to accessorize even our looks! Who wouldn't want that, right?
Well, contact lenses is one of the many things that have been accessorized these days. Besides from the fact that it's the substitute for eyeglasses in order to look cooler and younger, it now comes with different styles and colors!
The sad thing is, contact lenses could make a person blind permanently, IF not taking precautions carefully. And so, I'd like to share this story to you that was shared to me on Facebook.
A 21 year old guy had worn a pair of contact lenses during a barbecue party. (An event or meal at which food is cooked outdoors over an open grill or fire) While barbecuing, he stared at the fire charcoals continuously for 2-3 minutes. Shortly after that, he started to scream for help and moved rapidly, jumping up and down. No one in the party knew why he was doing this.
Then he was admitted into the hospital. The doctor said that he'll be blind permanently because of the contact lenses that he had worn. Contact lenses are made by plastics and the heat from the charcoal melted his contact lenses.
I hope that this serves as a warning to us all. Personally, I tried to use contact lenses just to experience it, but eventually kept if off because it hurt my eyes. I realized that I don't like to be poking my eye with anything.
To all who wear contact lenses: Please take this warning carefully. Never wear contact lenses to places where overheating and flames are concerned. Most of all, NEVER WEAR THEM WHILE COOKING.
A happy day to us all!
