Question I wear contact lenses and sometimes one of my eyes turns completly red
and I take them out and it goes away after a couple days. And when its
red it makes it kinda blury and watery. Do u know what this could be
from??
Answer Hi Dulce,
You've described (no kidding) a contact lens related problem...It could be the lenses themselves or a defective one, a solution problem (likely), or a fitting problem. You'll need to see your doctor to have these things checked out. Meanwhile, stop using the contacts and let your eyes stay healthy.
