Ophthalmologist 's  Response
Hello
Welcome to Health care magic

I reviewed your history. It seems from the history that you are having cloudy vision and colored halos after wearing contact lenses. These symptoms indicate tight fit of contact lenses and contact lens induced ischemia. hence this requires evaluation by your optometrist to assess the fit of the contact lenses.

Hence I advice you to consult your ophthalmologist for examination for confirmation of diagnosis and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
With regards
