Why does my eyesight turn cloudy when I sit on the computer with my contacts lenses on?

I got my lenses 4 days ago and I'm new to this. Whenever I work on my PC with my lenses on, my eyesight goes blurry and cloudy and my eyes feel a bit dry. I have to blink many times if I want to see clearly. The optician said I should blink a lot but even if I do that, the blurriness returns in about as short as 5 seconds. It's troubling me a lot! Can you advise me on what to do?

Thankyou!! :)

  1. They might be fogging up if you are looking at too much p**n.My glasses do the same thing. :0)


  2. Usually when you are wearing your contacts, no matter how long you had them for, and you tend to stare or read something for a short period-long period of time, having your eyes open for that amount of time tends to dry out your lenses and that's how it gives you the feel that everything is cloudy or blurry. Your contacts get dry when the air hits it, that's why you have to keep them moisturized by blinking several times. Make sure you have good eye drops for your eyes, that would really help. Use them whenever you feel that your eyes are dry or you see cloudy.

  3. It just means that your lenses need a clean because they get heavy with eye protein and it might be better to wear them for a maximum of four hours for the first week, til your eyes adjust.

    Two things to do. Humidify the room if it's hot and if you have a pair of glasses, use those while your lenses are dipped in solution. Talk to you optician about the dry eye. You should be advised on a suitable eyedrop.

  4. mine do the same thing...

    mostly at night..

    but it happens too when i talk to someone and i am looking at them for a couple minutes.. even if i blink regularly... i have to rub my eyes or close my eyes for a couple sec.

    i am no help other than try to relax your eyes..

    i told my eye doctor about it and they were being really naive .. so i dont know if your doctor could help anymore then mine did.

    sorry

  5. to much strain

  6. Learn to work with your eyes closed.  I think you may be overstraining your eyes.  Give them a rest.

  7. My contacts tend to go blurry and cloudy when I cry a lot.  The only suggestion I can really give you would be to take them out and clean them really good before setting down at the computer.  It could also be, since you are knew to the contact world, that your contact slips out of place.  You may also give it more time because your eyes are probably not adjusted to the lack of oxygen they get from wearing your lenses.  I have been wearing contacts for about 14 years.  You may also invest in some sort of lens drops to keep your eyes from drying out.
