A member asked:
When i apply my coloured contact lens , my eye felt like its burning and its red . its my first time, is this normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not normal : First of all, discontinue using the contacts till you see your Eye doc. Your symptoms are not normal and may indicate that the contact lens is improperly sized, or you're sensitive to the type of plastic or solution that you're using. For your eye health its best to play it safe and have a reevaluation.
