My eyes have been very bloodshot for about a week now. i slept in my contacts but now i'm wearing them properly. why are my eyes still bloodshot?

Take a break: From contact lenses until your eyes are back to normal. They are bloodshot probably because of over wear. Going back to wearing them is not helping. Take a break from the lenses for a few days and just wear your glasses. If you are having pain or decreased vision get an exam immeditaley as you could have an infection. Good luck.
