Drink plenty of fluids and listen to your body to protect your vision long-term. https://www.allaboutvision.com/conditions/related/does-dehydration-affect-eyes/

While it's hard to beat a good bargain, chasing the lowest price on contact lenses may not be worth it. Cheap, non-prescription or counterfeit contacts may cause:
◽ Corneal abrasions
◽ Eye infections
◽ Toxin exposure
Only prescribed, FDA-approved lenses are safe. Stick with trusted retailers, a valid prescription and your eye doctor’s advice. https://www.allaboutvision.com/eyewear/contact-lenses/cheap-contacts/
