It is still forbidden by German law for cockpit aircrew to wear contact lenses. This is due in particular to experience gathered in the past with older types of contact lenses, especially those made of glass or PMMA. Meanwhile, technological progress has brought improvements in respect of material, size, tolerance and particularly the optical result. Investigations were carried out with regard to the tolerance of contact lenses in condition of low humidity, high g and sudden compression. The results are given and the consequences for cockpit aircrew and passengers are discussed.
