Contact lens help!

OK so I was wearing my contact lens today and I rubbed my eye too much so the lens have gone missing... they're definitely in the eye somewhere, I just don't know where cause I can't see where it is... I've been using eye drops and I've done pretty much whatever I can think of to try and find the damn thing, I don't even know if it's still in there or if it may have fallen out etc.

Btw it's natural colour so it makes it harder to find, if I was wearing the colour ones today it'd be a lot easier. I can't exactly see clearly without the lens so I've got no hope in finding it LOL. Going to go see the optom tomorrow but just wanna know if anyone has any tips on how to find the lens?

Thanks! :P

Don't think its still on your eye. My optom said that if the lens gets in a weird position then when you blink, it'll just reposition itself over the covered part of the eye (dunno what it's called lol) so I think it's fallen out.

Plus if it was still on your eye you would be able to feel it there if its in a weird spot

EDIT: I can be wrong though, because I've only been using them for less than a week :P

Alright, thanks for your help! :) I tried blinking and looking down etc in case it might be under the eyelids, but that's been no help...

You're probably right that it's not in there anymore haha.

YOU LOVE ME.

Just keep blinking hopefully, it might pop out at some stage. Does it feel weird?

Probably fell out.

I'm saying that because the only place it could've gone is behind your eye, which I am very certain you'd be able to feel. You must've rubbed it, it fell out and you didn't notice.

How long you been on contacts for?

Oh alright. I've only got slight irritations in the eye now, but then again that's probably because I've been touching it and everything haha. Been on them for 3 weeks now.

If you didn't see it coming out it's possible it might still be in there. It happened to me once, I thought it fell out but instead I found it in my eye the next morning when I woke up, wrinkled and covered in eyeball juice. It's quite gross but I couldn't feel anything unusual at the time. Anyway, the same probably happened to you so wait it out!

I'm afraid, if it is indeed behind your eye, you're going to have to get your eyeball removed and replaced with a glass one.

Did I not tell you this would happen?

My friend did the same thing and it did go to the back of his eye. All I'll say is, you'll know when the lens is out of place. :P
