Why do my eyes feel tired after i take out my contacts?
5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Dry eyes: Contact lenses are essentially sponges that retain a certain level of moisture by pulling it from the surface of the eye. Dry eyes can result from long-term contact lens wear. Whenever the contacts are removed, the eye has no barrier protecting it from the air, which causes them to feel "tired".
