LosMediasBlancas Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ Mar 21, 2006 -> 04:27 PM) So, I just got contacts today and it feels like I constantly have tears in my eyes. Is that normal? It almost feels blurry. They feel blurry, or things LOOK blurry? If things look blurry, that's not good. Give it a about a week and maybe go back. Having moist eyes is a good thing, it keeps the contacts comfortable. When your eyes go dry, they'll feel like sandpaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just had a 15 minute battle with my contact lenses today. This was the first time I really had to get them in myself. Not cool. I'm hoping this gets a lot easier. I have my follow-up on Saturday and I'm hoping things work out by then; if not, I'm out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's kind of a long time, even for a beginner, but it will get easier. I hate to ask a stupid question, but are they in properly? I'm assuming you have soft lenses, so they curve both ways. Look for the natural curvature of the lense and put them in that way. If you do the opposite, you can still get them in, but they'll feel awful. I'm not explaining it well, sorry.

I think it's just so foreign to me, I wouldn't even know what the proper fitting should feel like. This morning, I was able to get them in a little easier, but, once again, one of my eyes feels perfect--I can even't notice it--and the other eye feels like I have a tear drop in it, that just isn't going away. Also, last night when I took them off, my eyes felt awfully dry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
