Why Are My Eyes Watering With Burning And Blurred Vision After Sleeping With Contacts?
Hi. I feel asleep for a couple of hours with my contacts in. When I woke up, I rubbed my eye and my contact came out. Since then my eye has been burning, watering and is red. Is it possible the contact scratched my eye? If so, how can I get some relief? My vision is also blurrier than normal in that eye.
Hello It seems from the history that you slept with contact lenses following which you are having burning sensation, watering and blurred vision. These problems are because of contact lens induced ischemia affecting the cornea. Corneal infections needs to be ruled out. Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.
Thank you
