  1. Sometimes my contacts go behind my eyes if I rub my eye really hard. But I never understood it when people said that it burns or hurts. I don't feel anything. One time I had a contact behind my eye all day and I didn't even know it until I rubbed it out later that night.


  2. actually, no. well there is a slime chance. but generally speaking, nope because your eyes have muscles that surround it so contacts can't go behind them, only to the side

  3. Well... no.  It can't go "behind" your eye, because that's where your optic nerve is.  It can, however, get stuck under your upper eyelid.  This usually happens if you let your eyes get too dry during the day, or if you somehow get the contact folded over on itself while you're wearing it.

  4. i haven't had mine go compeletely to the back of my eye but more to the side.

    i think its when they're dry or something.

    wow that would suck if it went ALL THE WAY back there.

    whew.

  5. yes if not pushed on all the way they could slide behind our eye from fluids in our eye.

  6. yes this happend to my friend b4

  7. yeah, that's happened to me before...it hurts incredibly bad.

    it's usually because the actual contact folds over onto itself.

    if it ever happens to you, just keep blinking and eventually it should migrate back down.

    edit: it doesn't go behind your eye, it can get trapped up in your eyelid though.

  8. no i wear them all the time u no if Ur eye goes dry and the contact does not come out stick a drop of the solution in ur eyez they will come out

  9. it cannot go behind the eye.  it can go up pretty high, but not out of reach.  the structure of the eyeball  blocks the way.

    on the bottom, it cannot go as far .

    this is nothing to worry about.
