Contact lense broke in my eye?

Question

Last night my lense broke as i was removing it from my eye. This has happened me a couple of times over the years i've worn lenses. Usually i am able to remove it all. This time however I think part of it remained. Now my eye is sore and the bottom lid is very swollen. I'm thinking i'll be taking a trip to the Opticians tomorrow. Anybody suffer with this before?

Answer 1

no srry. but good luck ask the doctor

Answer 2

no, if it wasnt soft, maybe its worth trying soft lenses? theyre more breathable and dont break, just rip if abused.

Good luck xoxo

Answer 3

Break sounds serious, is it the glass type of lense? Most lenses now days are manufactured of a type of plastic, and they tear. Contact lenses have moved to the back of my eye, it takes awhile to work them forward. If it is a glass lense you should see a doctor immediately. If plastic tilt the face down and cry and let the torn portion work forward.
