Barring magical alchemical stuff (which is what fantasias are, let's not kid ourselves here) there's no existing technology to produce contact lenses that would be practical for adventuring.
Namely, plastic is not a thing in eorzea, so the contact lenses would have to be glass. The contact lenses we have now in the real world are slightly uncomfortable if they so much as move...can you imagine the damage glass ones would cause?
...you don't, actually, since glass contact lenses have been around as long as the technology to create them has been. The damage they can cause is pretty well documented.
