Yes, the early contacts were not very oxygen-permeable. I tried them in the late 80s and after a week with them I went back for a follow up, and my optometrist said, "Oh, um, you need to stop wearing them." I said, "Why?" he said, "Well, they're making veins grow across your eyes and, if they touch, you'll go blind."
