See your Eye MD: Any eye pain is potentially dangerous. You should see your eye md asap! eye pain that is masked when your contact lenses are in could represent an ulceration of your cornea - very dangerous! it might be something less severe but if it is an early ulcer it could permanently reduce your vision.
