I wear bausch and lomb contact lenses since last four years.At present Im wearing ciba vision and I purchased it from a reputed doctor last year.Since last three days whenever I used to wear my lenses my right eye would prick but I colud manage.but since yesterday as soon as i wear my right lens it pricks too much and my eye turns red and watery.I get relief only when i take it out.I go to work and at my work place no one knows that i wear lenses so I cant wear my specs.What should i do?do i need to replace my lenses?After removing my lens also my red eye is still reddish.
P.S.It pricks on the left top portion of my right eye and not the whole eye.
Please help.

    what do you mean it “pricks”?????

    the contacts curve are probably not right for your eye. no matter the price, you should keep your eyes healthy so you really need to go back to a brand that was the most comfortable and try to get daily conacts so theres less chance of build-up of bacteria in the contacts.

    You must go back to your doctor and tell him/her about your problem. The new ones are definitely not suitable for you. You don’t want to blind your vision. You might want to switch back to the old ones. The doctor might wants you to wear glasses for the next few days until your redness go away. Don’t be so worried about what people think about you. Maybe you will get a different reaction than what you think would be. Good luck! Take care of the problem right away before it gets worse!

    you know what… i am having the same prb… i never had these probs before.. but now my eyes ich and burn and i am wearing the same contacts as before i also even tried to buy a new box and i used all pears in a week so i know it wasnt just that one pear. hey go to you eye doc. thanks now i know it isnt just me.

  5. go back to the doctors sounds like they don’t fit right

  6. You could have a tiny tear or calcium deposits on your right lens . Try using a new lens and see if that takes care of the problem. If not, visit your ophthalmologist to see if there is another problem.

    Remember: You should never sleep with your contacts in, it heightens the chance of a sever fungus infection.

    As per your situation, it is getting worse. So the best way is to see your eye doctor as soon as possible. I wore contact lenses for 8 years. The latest pair I wore is not good cz I change to another brand which is recommended by my friend. No better solution, I will dispose them.
    Take care! Be good to your eyes.

    go to an opthalmologst. let him/her check your eyes.
    i’m a student and i’m also shy to wear glasses on class or everywhere that’s why i wear contact lens. but 1 day my sister had her eye check because she feels something strange and the doctor(opthalmologist) said it might be the effect of the contact lens she’s wearing. the doctor(opthalmologist) said u might get blind w/ contact lens especially when you touch the pupil (not sure..i think). some doctors especially optometrist will say it’s ok but the truth is not anymore. that’s why even though i’m very shy, i always think that it’s more OK when i use glasses bcus even though i dont look good w/ it– it is still safer. and as time passes by, the people who sees me will get used to it.
    now i only wear contact lens maximum 3 times a week (only when needed or sometimes i just feel wearing it hehe) or sometimes i dont wear it in a week..
    also, i’m having a hard time taking them out..it’s just so slippery…………..hope this one helps.
