Why did my left eye start to sting when i inserted my soft contact lens?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Contact lens: Intolerance may be caused by an issue with your eye, the solutions you use, or the contact lens itself. If your eye doesn't bother you when the lens isn't in place, then it's probably due to the lens or the solution. Try a new contact lens to see if this helps. If not, then you should see your eye doctor.
