What Causes Nausea And Discomfort In Eyes After Using Coloured Eyes?

I just bought cosmetic colored contact lenses and put them in last night. At first it bothered my eyes alot, then decreased. I fell asleep in them and woke up this morning with lots of discharge and my eyes were practically glued shut. I got up, cleaned my eyes, and noticed I felt kind of nauseated. I love the way the lenses make my eyes look but it feels like somethings wrong. also, on my left eye, the contact won't stay centered. Could this be because I flipped the lense wrong side out when putting it in? Or is it just common among cosmetic lenses because they aren't fitted to your eye?

Welcome to HCM portal.
Cosmetic lenses are supposed to fit you well or next time you can try some other brand.There was some infection while handling lenses and you are never supposed to sleep with lenses on.
