Question: Why do contact lenses sting when first putting them on in the morning!?
I've been wearing contact lenses since I was in high school and this is just unavoidable!. Every morning when I put them on they burn my eyes!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
Ask your Eye doctor!.
It could be that the pH level of the solution that the lenses are stored in is different from your eyes'!. There will be a pH which the manufacturer targets when making the solution!. If this is different from your natural level, it can create a stinging sensation until the pH level of the tear film on your eye and the solution on the contact lenses come into balance!.
This problem might be made worse by buffered solutions which are designed to maintain a constant pH level, which if set at a different pH level from your eye, could prevent your tear film and the solution's pH from balancing!.
This is only one possibility, I'd get it checked out!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Probably a bad solution!.
If they're dailys the stuff they're packaged in hurts my eyes as well!. I used to take them out of the package and put other solution on them and clean them and then put them in - no irritation or stinging!
I use monthlys now, and I tried a few solutions until I got one that didn't irritate my eyes!. Viola! No stinging or irritation!.
Hope that helps, if not, I'm not sure what the problem could be, bring it up with your eye doctor maybe!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

Ive been wearing contact lenses since i was in high school and i am 28 and i barely have the same problem !. Maybe its your contact lens !?!? i keep mine in Opti Free solution and i dont have your problem !.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Just happening recently!? If so, take them to your eye doc because maybe there is a tear in them both, or the prescription is running out of strength, or your eyes are now sensitive to the current solution you are using!. Maybe you are developing an allergy to dust!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
I wear contacts and I can tell you why!. They are not cleaned all the way!. The only way you should first rinse them with water and wash them in the morning!. Them you should apply your solution it would be rinsed of protien good luck!.
