Answer 1

You should definitely make an appt. with your doctor..

But until then, take your contacts out. Give your eyes some air. It sounds like to me that you may have an eye infection starting up..

You should just wear your glasses until you can see your doctor.

He will probably prescribe your some eye drops to get it cleared up in a couple of days..

I had an eye infection & the worst thing to do is to keep your contacts in. It keeps your eye irritated..and makes the infection worse..

Also, throw out the pair of contacts you had in when you noticed your red eyes. You don't need to put those back in!

Well, Good Luck!

& I hope your eyes get better.

Answer 2

I guess u have dry eyes. Neway to be on the save side, go see the doctor

Answer 3

Through out that pair of contacts.  It appears that the lense gave you an infection. Don't wear any contacts for a few days and you should be fine...
