Coloured contact lens problem?

Question

i wear my monthly disposable coloured contact lens nearly eveyday for a long period of time.. The make of my lens are Fresh Look colourblends in Gray, i bin using the same brand and colour for the pass 2 years, it make my eyes looks bigger and change my natural dark brown eyes to light green/grey and never have any problems with it.. But for the past 2 months my eyes has bin infected twice mayb due to my lack of aftercare for the lens, and i've learn my lesson so i didnt use my lens till the infection was gone.. But since then every time i put my colour lens in, only my right eye change colour and my left eye remains to my natual brown.. it's bin like this for the pass few weeks and i've tried to open a new pack to see if it make any differences but it didnt.. Is there somethin wrong with my eyes due to my past infections?

Answer 1

I re-read this several times, but it still doesn't make sense.

You are saying that an opaque lens isn't changing your eye color anymore ?

Have you asked other people to see if your color has changed, or is it just you who are seeing no change...cuz it is pretty well impossible for the color not to change when you put an opaque lens on it.

Are you using 2 different boxes, one for left and one for the right ?

Maybe the box of left lenses aren't what they are supposed to be ?

Have you tried the right lens in the left eye to see if that works , as far as color change ?

Lots of questions, because it doesn't make any sense....lol

Nothing could have happened to your eye that would make any difference, an opaque lens is still an opaque lens.

Answer 2

I would recommend calling your optician to ask (after you have double checked the contact's box to be sure that contact is what you expect it to be).  Your optician may have a free answer for you.  They also may invite you in for a free look/see.   Another suggestion would be to contact the manufacturer customer support line to pose the question.  I expected you to say: I learned my lesson and do a much better job of cleaning my lens.  I presume you tossed out the contacts that you wore during the infection?  Also, throw out any eye makeup after 6 months.  I got an infection from my old mascara (and I hadn't loaned it to anyone else).
