Its not a good idea but if you do don't open your eyes under water if chlorine gets on the lens it will hurt if they aren't completely flushed from your eyes...so keep wearing the goggles

It is fine. I do it on a daily basis. As long as you wear goggles and none of the water gets in your eyes, it's ok.

well, technically you shouldn't be opening your eyes in a pool without goggles at all anyway because of the chlorine, and i would probably take them off just to be safe because there is no way you're going to find a contact in the pool

It's not recommended but the use of contact lenses in the pool is perfectly ok... Just remember that chlorine isn't suitable for open eyes underwater. Personal experiences

I do it all the time, pool, ocean, river doesn't bother me all that much except that one time a wave caught me and one contact floated away. Took a while to find my spot on the beach ;-)

If you wear goggles, then it is probably fine. Otherwise...NOOOOO! Never swim with your contacts in!!!
