Over the past few years, I've worn various brands of these lenses like Solothica, Anesthesia, Desio etc

All of these online brands coloured contacts are made of polymacon.
Polymacon lenses are made from a type of 80s hydrogel that's not as breathable as newer materials like silicone hydrogel.

This means that less oxygen gets to your cornea, which can lead to dryness and even more serious complications over time.

Eventually, I developed chronic dry eye, angiogenesis (ugly af) and had a couple of minor corneal abrasions. My optometrist told me that prolonged use of low-oxygen lenses like these was the cause which lead me to further research:





If you're thinking about using polymacon lenses, especially colored ones, I'd strongly recommend being cautious.

Make sure you get them from a reputable source (absolutely NOT from temu and similar), absolutely DON’T SLEEP IN THEM EVEN ONE SINGLE TIME and don’t exceed 6 hours max.

Sleeping in contacts are scientifically proven to hurt more than burning alive.

What brands sell silicon hydrogel and how do you know if it’s made from it

Damn, this is actually incredibly concerning. I have been using polymacon colored lenses for a while now, definitely over 6 hours a day too. Hopefully my eyes don't get fucked as a result. It's like the one thing I'm not willing to lose tbh

goddamn man. And the funny thing is that sites like solotica claim to be "muh FDA approved" with no evidence of them ever being so

Thank you for the thread, even if the lenses are actually FDA approved. From now on I'll definitely wear my lenses only up to 6 hours a day max

Dumb a s s oxygen diffuses through your pupil into your eye
You gotta expose that part as much as possible try costly contact lenses which contain micro pores giving little more comfort

They are safe if you buy them from an optics retailer and they are better than eyeglasses

  • What are Urban Layer lenses made of?
We use Polymacon with Silicone Hydrogel.

"

They list Silicone hydrogel as their material while they're actually made of polymacon with a minimal hint of silicone just to claim it on the product page. This shit is not even listed on wikipedia or fda approved
