CPAP and Overnight Contacts: Blurry Vision

Does anyone use a CPAP and have overnight contact lenses? I started using a CPAP a few days ago, and my overnight contacts seem to not be working as well when I use the CPAP? I keep waking up with really blurry vision.

Can you help? Connect today

Sounds like your contacts are drying out overnight. Do your CPAP have a humidifier chamber where you pour distilled water in?

samtheant

yes, it does. Also, I'm using a nasal mask so it doesn't really make sense why it would do that. Maybe I'll try turning the humidity up

I use a humidifier and also use eyedrops before I go to sleep ( not medicated ones , just lubricating ones )

Morning eye drops. Restores vision instantly (or very soon if orientated lenses and sat upright) and makes contacts more comfortable.
