Why are do my eyes have red lines around my eye ball and are blurry?

Question

I wear contacts and as soon as I put them in, my eyes get blurry. I can still see though. It's just annoying. I have like little red vessels of blood near my eyes too, surrounding the contact. This has been going on in both eyes for sometime now. Help!

Answer 1

Sounds like your eyes aren't adjusting to the contacts. Are these old contacts? How long do you keep them in before your eyes start turning red around your iris? I know that if I have mine in for too long or there are calcium build up deposits on them, that will certainly irritate the eyes and cause the redness. It's not good to be wearing your contacts if they are doing this to your eyes. I suggest that you take them out, keep them out and wear your glasses until you can get into your optometrist to get an exam for new contacts.
