last year i slept with my contacts on after a night of partying and passing out..
next day woke up and my eyes were dry as hell, so i took out my contacts as soon as possible.
right after i took them out, my eyes started to burn. Doesn't matter whether I keep my eyes open or shut them, it HURT like hell
Became very sensitive to light, tearing up ALL day long, and the burn just never went away.
I gave up and went to see the eye doc, turns out I scratched the surface of my eyes.
Luckily the eyes are one of the fastest auto-recovering parts of your body, so it got better in like 2-3 days.
That burning pain had me

Never happened to me. I rarely wear my contacts. I only wear it usually during the weekends when I go out or see my boyfriend. The rest of the week I go to work rocking my glasses. So much easier than worrying about putting on my contacts or hating coming home super late and having to take em off before i throw myself into bed.

Taking them out so fast was your mistake. I always tell people that if you fall asleep in your contacts don't touch them for a while - wait until they are moving nicely and then take them out. If you do what you did you rip off the top layer of the cornea - it heals but it's really uncomfortable for a few days.

I have contacts that are supposed to be changed every month. The cleaning solution I use really cleanse my contacts because it needs 6 hours to clean or else
if I put them on my eyes will burn from the cleaning solution. Ever since my eyes were becoming very dry and itchy I switched up every day from my contacts to my glasses and my eyes feel alot better.

Each has its pro's and con's.
I especially hate when there's a scratch on the contact, makes it extremely uncomfortable and blurry...But contacts are so expensive

I use to have itchy eye problems when I was in 1st grade.
It's the worst when you have an eye lash on your eyeball
