Cinders said:
Both sentences use the verbs correctly, although I think the better sentence would be with the verb "to wear."

Remember, though, that the active verb of the sentence is "love" in either instance, which means the second verb should be in the infinitive tense: "TO wear" or "TO use."

So, the best sentence would be: "I love TO wear contact lenses."

Hope this helped. Good luck learning English!

would "i love wearing contact lenses" work? and if so- would that change the meaning in any way?

Yes it would work, no the meaning isn't changed.

Right. You can write it in the infinitive (as I have done) or in the present progressive. It does change the meaning SLIGHTLY, but not significantly. The use of the infinitive implies a habitual action (I love to read the Bible every Sunday) for example, whereas the present progressive implies that it's a present ongoing event (I love reading the Bible!)

"I love to wear contact lenses" is slightly more accurate, but you could use either of them.

Remember to use the word "to" before wear or use, eg "I love TO use contact lenses".

Don't worry, though. I know how difficult it is to write in a different language. You're doing great!! :)

both sentences could have the word "to" in front of the verbs "wear" and "use", uunless you mean the lenses are previously used, then you'd write "i love "worn" contact lenses" or "i love "used" contact lenses"(that would be a weird sentence but it would be gramitically correct)if that helps answer your question

Yes well they use the verbs and all
anyone could understand what you are saying
although this would be a better way for you to say it

"I love to wear contact lenses"
"I love to use contact lenses"
that way it would make more sense and I know I answered late sorry for that
