Contacts stuck?

Question

Last night I fell asleep with my contacts. Now I can't get them out of my eyes. I'm positive they're still on my eyes. Do you know how to get them off? (Preferably without medical assistance)

I've tried everything. I loaded my eye with saline solution and everything. I tried removing them in 20 different ways. Now my eyes are irritated and extremely dilated.

Answer 1

Use some saline solution and squirt it in your eye to loosen them up. They will come out. Been there done that!

Answer 2

Soft lens - Try to squeeze your eye ball putting a little pressue around the corners of where your contact's end should be. Then lift your eyelid and pull gently over your eye. If all else fails rub your eyes, this will irritate your eye, but should help get your contacts out. I had a horrible habit of forgetting to take them out (after drinking) and had many of mornings to trying to pry them off my eyes. Good luck.

Answer 3

The best thing u can do is 2 go 2 the eye doctor so that he/she could take them out 4 u so u do not have 2 worry about if they r still behind ur eyes.

Answer 4

Try using some eye drops for contacts and if this doesn't work then head to your eye docs office right away.

Answer 5

Put rewetting drops into your eyes. (You can also use non-peroxide soaking solution to do this) Do this several times over a 15 minute period. This will force the lenses to rehydrate to their normal state. Then they wll come out normally.

Answer 6

I've fallen asleep with my contacts in too. Lol, I remember waking up and screaming, "I CAN SEE!" lol. Anyway, try to loosen them up with solution or eyedrops or make your eyes water or cry. Best of luck.
