Contact lens problems?!?!?

Question

After being on the computer for a few minutes, all of a sudden my eye started hurting, and I could barely open it, and I was tearing up profusely. I tried to take my contact out but there was nothing there! Then I found that it had rolled to the back of my eyes and was all scrunched up.

What had caused this to happen?

Is this very serious?

Answer 1

It sounds like a simple case of eyestrain. Try using eye drops and dimming the brightness on your screen a few notches. And using a cool compress on your eyes really helps. Eyes can do funny (weird) things when staring at a screen, so this is perfectly normal. Good luck!

Answer 3

I have had problems similar to these, usually after starring at a computer screen or playing a video game for to long with out blinking. Its not that major of a problem i believe, but should probably take out your contacts when you are on the computer, this what i do.
