CAN I SWIM IN CONTACT LENSES?

You cannot swim in daily soft contact lenses but you can use iGO vision.

There are two main problems with wearing conventional soft daily contact lenses when swimming. The first is that they can get easily lost and float out if you get splashed or open your eyes under water. But the most important reason is that the swimming pool water can enter into the contact lens and increase the risk of getting an eye infection. Wearing swimming goggles can help, but even then you can get water in swimming goggles. 

One of the many advantages of iGO is that your eyesight  is corrected overnight which means that you can swim without having to worry about the risk of eye infections. This makes iGO lenses the best contact lens for swimming because you don't actually wear them while swimming!
