I have worn contacts for over 20 years, first time I put them on they were magic, I could see and I didn't feel a thing. During my first visit I talked with a young lady about her contacts and found she wore them constantly for weeks. It wasn't long before I had the same habit. I only changed them about once a month.
Just recently I've started getting some irritation which forces me to take them out for a day or two. This morning I woke up about 5:30am and new I had a problem, I got out of bed about 6:30 and removed the contact which made it hurt even more. I could not use my computer because of light sensitivity. Finally about 9:30 I decided to go to the eye doctor. He looked it over and gave out some terms, a sterile
something, a build up of white blood cells.
Gave my an ointment and a drops and said comeback in 3 days.
I will add, this has been happening off and on for several months and it corresponds with a brand change of my contacts. I need to look into the brand change further, but it is probably my body aging and telling you can't wear your contacts for 30 days anymore.
Feeling better and can use my computer this afternoon!
