Hi!

The title is my question. Basically, can they be salvaged if they've been dried out for a short time, like a day or two?

Thanks!

Nope. If the lens has dried out it's best to toss it or risk some sort of bacterial infection such as GPC. I had that condition and it feels like razor blades in your eyes every time you close the eyelids. Yes, this is an extreme result though. If you wear contacts 24/7 then you must be extremely scrupulous about keeping them clean and moist and stored in proper containers. You can't really chitz when it comes to your eyes.

Twinks is 100% correct. Nothing else to add.

Thanks for the confirmation on this. I had to learn eye care the hard way. Now I'm stuck wearing glasses forever due to GPC and I did everything right in caring for my contacts!
