  1. nope , i asked my optician nd he sed every1 asks that question (so dnt worry its not a stupid question) if u fall aslepp with them in they might get lost but theyl eventually come out


  2. A contact can not roll to the back of your eye and get stuck there (that is one of my favorite optical myths) but it can get folded and get stuck in the corner of your eye or up under your eyelid.

    If this happens, the best thing to do is pour some contact lens solution or re-wetting drops in your eye and let them soak in for a minute. Then slowly and gently massage the contact down to where you can grab it with your eyes closed. Don't rub your eye and don't panic!

  3. No it can't, but if you sleep with your contacts then the contacts get dry & therefore kind of sticks to your eyes. But since you are not supposed to sleep with contacts, it'll be fine.

  4. It can go under your eyelid, but it won't get stuck.

  5. it can go under, but like it can't get "stuck" you can move your eye and it would stick

  6. Mine go behind my eyeball all of the time if thats what you mean.

    Hope I am your best answer!

  7. yes.  i lost two in one eye and the doctor couldn't find and told me i had lost them.  i woke up about a week later and they were matted in the corner of my eye.  so at one point i had three contacts in one eye.

  8. As in, attached to the inside of your eyelid? Or like, sliding under your eyelid to the back of your eye?

    I've been googling, and a few people have reported that their contact lenses have gotten stuck under their eyelid... but most reports have turned out false. If that were to happen, it would be easily fixable by everting your eyelid and plucking it out.

    A contact lens can not slide under your eyelid to the back of your eye due to a membrane covering your eye known as the conjunctiva.

  9. they can slide under not sure if they can get stuck though
