I have been wearing contact lenses for several years and has not had any problems. Recently when I started to wear a new pair of lenses I got headaches on left side of the temple just above the eye. I also feel like having small vertigo, where i am feeling out of energy and dizzy. I changed the contact lenses to a new pair still the above exists. Got any anwers for this?

maybe the contacts are the wrong prescription. you should get them checked by your optometrist or the place you purchased them from.
it does happen...more often than you'd think...that glasses and contact are produced with an incorrect prescription. the place you got them from will replace them/correct the problem for free (or they should since they didn't produce them in the appropriate prescription).
is the type of contact or the manufacturer different than your previous lenses? maybe try another type of lens.
i still think it's an incorrect prescription, though.

Is there a possibility that the manufacturers do some chemical process with the lenses to ensure that lenses does not last the full month as promised? Its a huge market if every contact lens wearer have to buy new ones sooner than prescribed. So instead of buying 3 pairs in a box that will last for 3 months, you end up buying another box after only 2 months. i believe this is a world-wide problem and I have been suffering like this for years now. There is nothing wrong with my lens prescription. IF THERE IS A PERSON OUT THERE WITH MORE KNOWLEDGE ABOUT THIS, PLEASE CONTACT ME URGENTLY ON agypseyrose@yahoo.com

Yes, it's the contacts. Even though you've worn glasses, it's a completely different feeling to get used to wearing contacts. It will take about a week to get fully used to them. You might try wearing the contacts while you're at work or school during the day, then switching out to your glasses when you get home to give your eyes a rest. You're eyes are just worn out from adjusting, and causing your headaches. :)

If you just got a new prescription, it will take some time for your eyes to adjust. I have had this problem in past. If it is the same prescription that you have had for a while, you may need a change in the prescription.

I think you should check your eyes first. may be its becoz of somthing else other than the contact lens. don't change the brand u r using as ur eyes r accustomed to that specific brand. for ur own good stop wearing lenses for somtime.

your eyes may need a new prescription, or there is a slim chance you could have been given the wrong one.

most people have to try a couple pairs before they find the right ones...that's why the first pair is called a trial pair. Try them until you find the right one.
