Hello Lybrate-User,
Contact lenses will cause severe problems if you already have dry eyes.
My suggestion is to limit the use of lenses to occasions only.
Also, take some basic care like washing the lenses properly with a given solution.
Take proper care of hygiene.
Do regular hot and cold compression on the eyes.
Also, do pranayama.
You can use homoeopathic drops eurphrasia.

a. Contact lens
b. Lasik laser
as your age is now 22 years so your number will not increase now whether you wear glasses or not as number becomes stable at age of 18-20 yrs.
Having said that I advise you to eat balanced diet including green vegetables and seasonal fruits for keeping eyes and body healthy.
