"Do not pity the dead, Harry. Pity the living, and, above all those who live without love" - Albus Dumbledore

Hi, I'm Laura. I'm a senior in college & I'm slowly deciding what I want to do with my life. I love Harry Potter, coffee, writing, and sleeping (amongst other things). I'll never claim to know everything, but I'm confident in my ability to help people with their problems. Feel free to send me an inbox question; I'll get back to you!




A few thoughts I've gathered from my teenage years (and being on this site for most of them!):
1. If you Google song lyrics, the song will come up 99% of the time.
2. Dress to fit your body type, and buy the size that fits. If you're a size 6, squeezing into a 4 won't make you look skinnier. It makes you look fat when you aren't.
3. You will never regret waiting to lose your virginity.
4. There is such a thing as a stupid question, but we're all allowed to ask them.

^my forum, liven it up a little?

advice

hey there,
okay so ive been wearing contact lenses for about 6,7months. they are the soft monthly disposables they are great and i have no problems with them i recently went for a check up to see if they were working my optiitian said everything was great and the type of lenses were working for me.
but today I went to put in my right lense fine no problem,but the left one really stung,this might happen the odd time but it settles but my eye went really watery and blood shot so I had to take it out. I let my eyes relax for an hour then tried again the same thing,my mom said I should leave them out for a day or two then see.
but im kinda worried..is this serious..?has anyone who has contact lense ever expierinced this and know what it might be?.. i checked online and some solutions said it could be a smile scratch on my eye(cornial abrasion)? but my eye isnt that sore without the lense in just gets iritated when i put it in?.
Im worried to go see my optitian because honestly I dont know what il do if i cant wear my lenses again :(
im probably over reacting but if anyone knows anything about this please help i need some reassurance!

Wear your glasses for a day.
Then try putting in a new contact.
The lens might be scratched. The same thing happened to me.


It's highly unlikely that you'll be unable to wear contacts again. My boyfriend has permanent eye damage from his contacts (he spraypaints and the paint got stuck on his contacts, he put them in backwards, and they scratched the hell out of his eye) and he can still wear them.


You'll be fine. Don't fret =)
