Dryness is possible: A common cause of redness and irritation with contacts is dryness.  Other issues are contact lens overwear and improper management.  Are you removing the lens each night?  Are you rinsing it well after cleaning before insertion?   Check with the initial fitter of the lens to see if some changes need be made.

Question 2

about 1 week ago i awoke with a single red eye but only in the inner corner. it has remained in that spot for a week and my eye feels uncomfortable.

Accepted Answer

See ophthalmologist: The eye probably has a small hemorrhage in the sclera which will go away in time.  The problem is that this is less likely since you are symptomatic.  Do  not fool with the eye.  Vision is precious and you will do yourself a favor by being seen and making sure this is nothing more severe.  Go over to the eye center on mohammed ali.  They should be still open. Call first.

Depends how long?: If you've just noticed it now, and it's not hurting, and just red spot, make sure your doctor watches it. If it's spreading, painful, and you keep touching it, or related to possible dust orbacteria from phone use, or a recent viral cold, and no discharge, try using lubricating saline drops (without perservative).Then, have your eye doctor examine you fully. It could be just irritated capillaries.
