Answers:
You'll be okay!. The reason your eyes hurt is because when you sleep, your eyes reduce the amount of tears they make, which means your contacts dry out while they're in your eyes!. The dry contacts rub against your eyes, causing irritation!. This isn't an infection!.
You should take your lenses out of your eyes for about 24 hours to let your eyes rest!. Try not to sleep with your lenses in!. An over the counter painkiller will help you feel better also!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
