Don't worry, the worst that can happen is you loose one in the water. You are not going to damage your eye or your lens. If you really need to take them out right away, put a drop of rewet drops in each eye and then remove them. Don't try to force the lens off the eye if it doesn't move easily-that could scratch your cornea, but other than that, you are fine. Most people do shower with lenses in

DONT WORRY! Its ok to shower with your contacts on. If you have soft contacts atleast. i dont know much about hard. but i shower in my contacts all the time and im fine. their a little hard to get off RIGHT AFTER but if you wait like 5 minutes or so they will come off. Your eye isnt hurt

Trust me.

i shower with my conracts all the time!!!! your allowed to shower with them who every told u that u cant is stupid and if u have acuve contacts that would not happen

nothing bad is going to happen to you...i have ton that same thing a thousand time...the heat and humidity from your shower just dried out your eyes a bit....try waiting a couple of hours or so or use one of those re-wetting drops....they will come off after the moisture has returned to your eye....

Well, I have soft contacts, too and I take a shower with them ALL THE TIME!!
Yeah, after your shower, it does kinda stick to your eyes, but after a while (of blinking), then your eye regains some of its moisture and you'll be able to take the contacts out! Your eye is not hurt in ANY way.
Best advice? ~>
Wait. Blink it out. ^_^

just squirt some saline in your eyes so they soften up u should be fine

I shower with my contacts all the time. The only problem I've had once, was that the water hit my eye and the contact flew out that was it...

it's fine to shower with your contacts on. I swim with mine and do basically everything with them. Are you sure the contacts are still in your eyes? Maybe they fell out,but you think they are still in.
