It is a common, preventable contributor to contact lens\u2013related irritation and complications. Clinicians use the term when evaluating symptoms like redness, pain, dryness, or blurred vision in contact lens wearers. It is discussed in optometry and ophthalmology as both a behavior pattern and a risk factor."}
