10 Causes of Swollen Eyelids
Reviewed: Dr. Mera
Cause #9: Contact Lenses
Those who have a problem with their vision instead of wearing glasses choose to wear contact lenses. However, wearing contact lenses can sometimes lead to swelling of the eyelids.
This is more likely to occur in cases of improper care, especially when swimming with contact lenses, wearing dirty contact lenses, or storing the lenses in a dirty contact lenses case, which can all lead to an infection of the eye. Using damaged contact lenses can irritate the eyes leading to swelling of the eyelids as well.
