If you mean the contacts you had on when you realized you had pink eye- NEVER! Those contacts have to be thrown AWAY! Anytime you have an eye infection of any kind, the contacts are immediately history, because they get infected too- and if you dont throw them away, you'll get the same infection again..... Sorry, but the truth will set you free!

Above is correct. You need to replace your lenses. Even if you haven't worn them since you have had pink eye. The infection was there before you became aware of it. Wait until the infection is completely gone. I'd even wait a few extra days. Then use a new pair.

throw your contact lens, rest your eye from wearing any cl, consult a doctor b4 you buy another one, because in my case i buy one , and then my eyes becomes red and itchy, for 2 weeks. so consult first a doctor for proper medication, maybe eye drops, or cream.
