What Causes Vision Blurring And Eye Redness After Wearing Contacts?

i sleep with my contacts in often, and i put in a new pair yesterday and woke up with a slight blur in my vision in the left eye along with a little redness along the outside of the contact. over about 3 hours my eye became completely red. i had the same problem last year with this pink eye, it happened 3 times last year during the fall-winter period. What should I do?

hi
it seems you have allergic conjuctivitis..moreover it is not advised to sleep with contact lenses on..in the long term this can have an adverse effect on cornea
.use extended wear silicahydra contact lenses..
check if you have any allergy with the solution of the lens
..meanwhile for the allergy you can have a short course of antiallergic eye drop..to combat the change in season
