However, as a matter of fact, it is possible to change your eye shape more or less because of wearing contact lenses for a long time. The scientific research shows that, long-term use of contact lenses has been shown to alter the following in the cornea, epithelial oxygen uptake, epithelial thickness, stromal thickness, and corneal endothelial morphology.

    Ok, from what I know, wearing contact lenses would not change the shape of your eyes if you use them properly. On the contrary, some people try to wear eyeglasses for a long time and they tend to have a pair of changed eyes, which is ugly, and contact lenses could better in this case. However, contact lenses would add some health risks to your eyes because they might lead to some infections if not kept properly.
