Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Mild Bruising In Eye After Taking Off Contact Lens?
I have been wearing contacts a lot lately (which is unusual; my job demands it) and today, after not wearing contacts all day (I had a day off) my right eye now feels bruised when I touch it on the outer upper edge, underneath my eyelid. It feels slightly concave.
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern. Discussion:- Such symptoms may not be due to not wearing the contact lens but this could be due to some allergic condition and may be conjunctivitis. Medication:- Anti-histamine and anti- inflammatory eye drops can be tired. Advise:- Better to see the ophthalmologist for better diagnosis. Comments:-While using eye drops care need to be taken for sensitivity, concave feeling could be just nonspecific.
