Like a year ago my eyes got really itchy so I switched to a new contact solution that was supposed to help. It did, but it was also had a bunch of rules that went with it like it had to go in this special case, which went into another case, and you couldn't let the solution touch your eye as it was b/c it was like a acid or something.
A few weeks after I started using it, I woke up one day, was extremely groggy, and tried to put my contacts in. One of them was dirty, so I rinsed it w/ the solution. When I put it back in I quickly realized my mistake. It felt like I was going blind. Luckily after some fidgeting, I got it out, and soon doused my eye with water for five minutes. It was only red for most of the day.
Maybe not a week, but yeah, after a while they become easy to manage and you barely even notice them as long as you do dumb shit like sleep with them in.

That's like, in the bathroom...the mouthwash and the aftershave used to be very similar looking (until Fram switched aftershaves), but he always feared one day he would end up swirling a bunch of aftershave around in his mouth.
This is exactly why the foot cream is kept in the hallway cupboard, far from the toothpaste.
I can only make out shapes without my glasses, and there are just too many things that can go wrong.

So there I was, home alone, hungry as fuck. So, spagetti, I mean, I love spagetti, we had a baguette lying on the counter... only problem was no homemade sauce. Just some jar shit that I normally only use just as a sauce base.
But I had italian sausage in the freezer! Yes! This was going to be the best of meals. So I cook up that sausage, pour the ragu and a little red wine over that shit, spice it up and viola, delicious spagetti. I sit down in front of the TV to watch a movie and eat my delicious meal when suddenly my eye itches.
So I rub my finger in it.
Worst fucking idea all night. I managed (through stupidity) to plant a small square of dried red jalapeno pepper in the corner of my eye. Pain slammed into me like a fist. The breath went out of me, and instantly my vision walleyed as tears filled my right eye. I just wanted to curl up on the floor and die. I'd had a few glasses of wine at the time, so it seemed like a reasonable course of action. Instead I forced myself to get up, stumble to the kitchen, and run cold water over my eyeball until it no longer felt like there was a miniature grizzly bear in my tear duct mauling my flesh.
Maybe not a week, but yeah, after a while they become easy to manage and you barely even notice them as long as you do dumb shit like sleep with them in.
Oh god, I did that with my old style contacts (I have those gel ones now), man, it took a lot of work just to get my eye to open so I could take it out the next morning.
For the rest of the day my eye was overly sensitive to light and hard to keep open.
Boy, that was fun, and something I never did again.

I just switched to this stuff. I'm really paranoid now. I think I might keep the solution under lock and key or something.
I might buy another years worth, because I think I look more attractive without my glasses. But it's not really something I'd like to spend money on, at this point.

I really need to stop making a reply, and after re-reading it insert more details or trim it, because it always leads to awkward stuff. Like shit time.

Yeah, I can't believe how common eye problems are for humans. It seems like almost everyone I meet has at least something about their eyes that they need some kind of help with.
My left eye has perfect vision, but my right eye has very minor lazy eye, unlike some people you can't really tell by looking at me that I have it, but if I try to just use my right eye it looks like I have black spots appearing and disappearing constantly.
Worst thing is that unlike a lot of problems people have, mine can't be fixed with any kind of surgery, laser or otherwise. Yay.

Once we strung a whole bunch of peppers for a week or so to dry them out. When it was done, I had to break them open and remove the seeds.
Afterwards, of course I washed my hands, but I didn't get all the residue off because I about blinded myself the next time my eyes itched.

Lazy eyes trip me the fuck out, but I have, like, five friends with lazy eyes.
My roommate once slept with his contacts in. Came home drunk, just passed out.
He woke up in the morning and took 'em out. There were loud shrieks coming from the bathroom, and he ran out of the house, jumped in his car and sped away.
He came home later, and his eye was blood red. I find out he just bolted to the hospital.
It was disgusting. Apparently, he ripped off... I dunno, whatever eye is make out of. He was off work for a few days, and had to stay out of sunlight.

Yeah, I was really self conscious about mine for awhile, but everyone I know has said they never notice it. My eye doctor said I did enough exercise on it when i was younger that it isn't as bad as it could be.
I would not be real big on having my eye rolling around looking for more interesting sights while I was trying to talk to someone.

It just makes me uncomfortable because I'm not sure which eye to look at to know where they're really looking.
Only because I haven't had an eye exam in as many years...
And I'm not going to switch to the new pair until I'm over this cold. One challenge at a time, please.

For the first time, well, ever, I really love the glasses frames that I have. Unfortunately, the coating on the right lens is starting to come off and it's kind of distracting, so I need to get the lenses replaced. Since it's been a year since my last check up, I need to do that, too. So I get to walk around a few days with my old frames and my old prescription.

It could be that, but at least for me, if its inside out, it hurts so damn much I cant stand to keep it in for more than 30 seconds.
So yeah, it COULD be inside out, I was just going by my experience. Contacts are a pretty person to person thing.
Edit: Never mind, he said it wasn't inside out.
I used to love my contacts.
I couldn't feel them at all.
JordynNolz.com <- All my blogs (Shepard, Wasted, J'onn, DCAU) are here now!
It will often feel that way if your contact is inside out. Considering the struggle to get them in the first time, that is a real possibility.
Take it out, depress it to flip it inside out, and reinsert it.
See if it feels any different.
Edit: I replied before reading past the first post.
