My eye became very bloodshot from contacts and was in alot o


Question Posted Wednesday July 19 2006, 2:37 pm

i had contacts for roughly a year now and since the summer time i've been getting in a bad habiat of leaving my contacts in over night for sometimes 3-4 weeks in a row. then my eyes would become a lil uncomfortable and i would take the contacts out that night and put new ones in. towards the end of school my eye got bloodshot and i could barely open it because light would bother it very badly and i took care of my eye and rested and it eventually went away in a few days (about 4-5 days. so now its about 2months later and the same thing happened but in my other eye and its about the 3rd day..i can open my eyes and i can handle light alott easier now and its still bloodshot..it should go away in about 3 days but when i look out my eye it seems cloudyish. my question is if anyone had this before and if the cloudyness will go away in a few days just like the bloodshot should? i know i should see a doctor because no one should play games with their eyes but this same thing happened before and it healed fine and this time i notice cloudyness which i dont really remeber having the first time in the other eye.

Yeah, I would definatly see a doctor, if it isn't possible to this is what I reccomend you doing do:

Take out your contacts and leave them out until your eye is completely healed. You should also frequently put eye drops in, they are very cheap and you can find them in any drug store. It should heal soon.

I never even keep my contacts in for more than 16 hours. It's also really bad to sleep with them in.

Good Luck

Yes, I think you should see a Dr. If anything he/she can give you something to help your eye heal faster. Perhaps you could set an alarm to remember when it's time to remove your contacts?
