Hey, I have that too. Which is why I have to get lasik, mentioned in this thread here:
[Laser Eye Surgery
Anyway, I’ve had this since I was in high school. I guess I wore my contacts too long. Now that it’s been double digit years later (sadly) I’ve come to the near end of my contact wearing life.
I got the same symptoms you did, and really, it took me 3 months to heal. I couldn’t wear contacts at all. (Or do any sports, which really killed me). And after it healed, I couldn’t wear my contacts for more than 2 or 3 days of the week. Another 4 years later, I can only wear them for 6 hours a week, and I spread them out – 2 hours on Monday, 2 on Wed, 2 on Sat.
Sucks I tell you.
If you hate wearing glasses, like me, I’d suggest you leave the contacts out of your eyes for a few months. And if not… get lasik like me… though the procedure freaks me out to no end.
