  • Oh God, there's something on my contact.

    喔天啊,我的隱形眼鏡裡好像有什麼。

  • Haha just kidding, I just wanted to freak some of you out.

    哈哈,開個玩笑,我只是想嚇嚇你們。

  • So I've been wearing contacts for nearly ten years now and have always wondered, is touching my eye every day doing something bad to my eyes?

    我已經戴隱形眼鏡快十年了,而我一直都很好奇,每天觸碰我的眼睛會對他們有害嗎?

  • Apparently putting contacts in your eye is "not a neutral act" according to microbiologist Maria Gloria Dominguez-Bello.

    根據微生物學家 Maria Gloria Dominguez-Bello 的說法,把隱形眼鏡放進眼裡明顯並不是一個「溫和的」行為。

  • In fact, contacts might change more than just your vision.

    事實上,隱形眼鏡能改變的不只是你的視線。

  • Dominguez-Bello and other researchers from NYU's Langone Medical center found significant differences in the ecosystems of the eyes of people who wear contact lenses and those who don't.

    Dominguez-Bello 和其他來自紐約大學朗格尼醫學中心的研究家發現,有戴隱形眼鏡和沒有戴隱形眼鏡的人,他們眼球內生態系統有顯著的差別。

  • In their study, they took hundreds of swabs of people's eye conjunctiva, which lines the eyelids and covers the white part of your eyes, and swabs of the skin directly under the eye.

    在他們的研究中,他們採取了幾個人的結膜抹片,也就是沿著眼皮、覆蓋住你眼白的部分,和你眼下皮膚的抹片。

  • They found thousands of different strains in the different parts of the eye.

    他們發現在眼睛的不同部分中有幾千種不同的物質。

  • But in those people who wore contacts, they had more bacterial diversity in the skin beneath their eye and a higher amount of different kinds of bacteria on the surface of the eye itself.

    但對那些有戴隱形眼鏡的人來說,他們眼下皮膚有更多種的細菌、眼球本身也帶有更多不同類型的細菌。

  • They had three times the usual proportion of certain bacteria like Methylobacterium, Lactobacillus, Acinetobacter, and Pseudomonas bacteria in the eyes.

    他們帶有的甲基桿菌、乳酸菌、不動細菌和假單胞菌的數量比正常數量高出了三倍。

  • Basically, the bacteria on the surface of their eyes looked more like the types of bacteria found on the skin , when compared to those who don’t wear contacts at all.

    基本上,跟沒有戴隱形眼鏡的人相比,他們眼球上的細菌跟皮膚上的細菌很像。

  • But the researchers still wonder if this altered bacterial composition is because contact wearers keep touching their eyes with their dirty little fingers, or if it’s the lens itself that is changing the immune system of the eye.

    但研究家對這種易變的細菌環境是否因穿戴者的手不斷觸碰眼球造成,仍保持懷疑態度,或是單純因為隱形眼鏡本身改變了眼球的免疫系統。

  • So more research is needed there.

    因此,我們需要更多研究。

  • However, the researchers think this could be part of the reason contact wearers get more frequent eye infections.

    但是,他們認為這是帶隱形眼鏡的人的眼睛更常感染的一部分原因。

  • Since the 1970s when soft contact lenses came on the scene, corneal ulcers have been on the rise.

    自從 1970 年代軟性眼型眼鏡問世之後,人們感染角膜炎的比率越來越高。

  • Corneal ulcers leave a nasty open sore on the cornea.

    角膜炎會在角膜上造成開放性的潰爛。

  • They're caused by bacterial, fungal or viral infections, mostly Pseudomonas.

    他們因細菌、真菌或病毒感染而起,大多數是單胞細菌。

  • Since that type of bacteria is found on the skin, maybe eyelid and hand hygiene is to blame.

    因為這種細菌大多數都在皮膚、眼皮上發現,手部的衛生或許是原因之一。

  • Specifically, another study published in Optometry and Vision Science identified three specific behaviors that might lead to nasty infections.

    特別的是,由視光學與視覺科學發表的另一項研究指出,有三個動作可能會導致感染。

  • And they're pretty straightforward like not washing hands with soap and water before handling contacts, not letting the case air-dry.

    這些都是非常直接的動作,像是戴隱形眼鏡前沒有用肥皂和水洗手,和沒有將保存盒晾乾。

  • And surprisingly, and I'm a little skeptical on this point, to be honest, using a contact case and a solution from different manufacturers.

    令人驚訝地,接下來這點則讓我有點懷疑,使用由不同廠商製造的保養液和保存盒。

  • I mean some bottles of solution come with cases, but I just assumed they were being nice, and all that "please use our solution for the best results" or whatever was just marketing BS.

    我的意思是,大多數的保養液都有附上保存盒,但我以為這些善良的標語說著「用我們的保養液和保存盒才是最好的選擇」只是行銷手段。

  • But maybe not?

    或許不是?

  • Or if youre too lazy to do any of the above, you could try contacts coated with anti-microbial stuff.

    又或者,你懶得做這些事,你可以試試看覆蓋著抗微生物的隱形眼鏡。

  • Seriously, one study also published in the journal Optometry and Vision Science tested a type of contact coated with melamine.

    另一項視光學與視覺科學在期刊中發表的研究用了以三聚氰胺包裹住的隱形眼鏡做了實驗。

  • This peptide fights microbes by inhibiting their growth.

    這種聚胺酸以抑制微生物的生長來與之抗衡。

  • In this study, human volunteers wore these coated contacts for a day with no major side-effects and they were just as comfortable as regular lenses.

    這項研究中,戴上的人類自願者一整天都沒有太大的副作用,也跟一般的隱形眼鏡戴起來一樣舒適。

  • So that could be handy to have.

    他們是易於使用的。

  • And I know I know, it sounds scary that YOU HAVE BACTERIA IN YOUR EYE.

    我知道,「你眼裡有細菌」這件事聽起來很可怕。

  • But bacteria is everywhere in and on us, we're like a walking ecosystem.

    但細菌在我們體內、體外到處都是,我們就像是一個會行走的生態系統。

  • And not all of it is bad, our microbiome might be beneficial for our health.

    而並不是一切都那麼糟,我們的微生物群系或許也對健康有益。

  • But some bacteria do cause nasty infections if they get out of hand, so if you're worried, basically, keep your contacts clean.

    但有些細菌如果失去控制地增長,確實會造成感染,所以如果你很擔心,就讓隱形眼鏡保持乾淨吧。

  • It shouldn't take science to tell you that.

    這不需要用科學方法跟你解釋。

  • Just get a nice routine down of washing your hands before you handle your contacts and air-drying the cases every now and then.

    只要養成在碰隱形眼鏡前洗手、時不時晾乾保存盒的好習慣。

  • But if shaving is part of your routine, maybe you should keep your contact lenses until you're done with that.

    但如果刮鬍子是你的日常之一,你或許該在刮完鬍子後再拿出隱形眼鏡。

  • I mean you might need to see for shaving your face and stuff.

    你應該需要清楚的視線才能刮鬍子。

  • And if you need a razor that delivers a superior shave, Try Harry's!
