Can I use these eye patches if I wear contact lenses or have sensitive eyes?

If you wear contact lenses or have sensitive eyes, extra caution is advised when using these gel patches. The product instructions specify that you should apply them on intact skin only and avoid placing the patches too close to the lash line. This is crucial to prevent the serum, which contains sunflower seed oil and vitamin E, from entering the eye itself. If your eye area is very sensitive, introduce the product gently. It is often advisable to remove contact lenses before application to minimize any risk of irritation or transfer of the emollient ingredients to the lens material. After removing the patches, gently pat any remaining serum into the skin rather than rubbing, which can cause discomfort. Stop use immediately if you experience stinging or irritation. While the ingredients are valued for helping reduce the feeling of dryness and softening the skin surface, individual reactions can vary. If you have a history of eye sensitivity or are undergoing treatment for eye conditions, consult a specialist before use. This ensures that the product is suitable for your specific needs and does not interfere with any existing eye care routines or medical advice.
