How do I handle the posion ivy and still wear my contacts?

Question:

Answers:
I would say go with glasses until the poison ivy is no longer contagious so it doesn't spread, the last place anyone would want poison ivy is in their eye.

Other Answers:
You should just skip the contacts for now until the itching and rash goes away.

I would suggest gloves. Use them to do everything you can and make sure your hands are super clean if you don't use the gloves to get out the contacts.

you cant. i guess you could find thin rubber gloves and try to put them in that way. if not then wear glasses till you get better.

Leaves of three - let them be! You've probably heard that little rhyme about poison ivy. But did you know that poison ivy, poison oak, and poison sumac all contain the same rash-causing substance? It's called urushiol (pronounced: yoo-roo-shee-ol), a colorless, odorless oil (called resin) contained in the leaves of the plants.

If you come into contact with urushiol oil, try to wash it off your skin right away by taking a shower and using lots of soap. (Avoid taking a bath, though, because the oil can be transferred to other areas of your body through the bathwater).

if you have it on you or someone else that you are caring for use rubber gloves when you touch and wash your hands with some of that posion ivy wash then wash your hands with your reg soap if you have it close to your eyes don't wear them that stuf will get anywhere and do damage

I usually get cream that's meant for poison Evy just put the cream on like three times a day, wash Ur hands right after putting on the cream then u can put in ur contacts, i get that all the time, I'm 13 trust me i know what i'm talking about

Use gloves, they are available anywhere in fact you can buy them in five pair packages in most drug or mass merchandisers. This is a simple solution to a problem that could be horrific if you have poison ivy on your hands.
