can you wear contact lenses during an x-ray?

If you have concerns other ask the x-ray technician. Full dental x-rays may differ in strength from skull x-rays for a possible fractured skull and lenses may show up depending on stuff (solid or flexible). X-rays are similar to ultraviolet rays in sunlight solitary of shorter wavelengths and far more penetrating. They can ionize enduring materials but the lowest dose practical is generally used to avoid tissue trash. X-ray technicians should ask you to remove any contact lenses if there is an issue.
yes
i hold. i have never be told i couldn't.
Contact lenses are made of a soft polymer (similiar to plastic). They can be worn during an xray.

Yes you may-if you ever have any doubt something like anything like that though you should speak to the technologist performing the exam.
