Are you supposed to put your contacts on with tap water?

Say you are at school and you don’t have your solution,
then is it all right to ue tap water?

Best Answer

You are NEVER, EVER to let your contacts even touch tap water. A protozoan organism called Acanthamoeba lives in tap water, and if you let it sit in your eye on the contacts, you will get the most painful eye infection of your life. Then you’ll have to go to the doctor to treat it as well as get really expensive antibiotics and medicine to treat it; it’s just not worth it.

Always use solution!
