Why does my left contact shift, but the right one doesn't?!
Question: Why does my left contact shift, but the right one doesn't!?
I'm just curious if there's any reason for this!. Every once in a while, my left contact lens (soft lens) gets "lost", usually up behind my upper eyelid, and I have a horrible time getting it out, and it's usually folded in half once I get it!. It happened tonight actually!.!.!.but the weird thing is, my right contact lens NEVER has any problems!.
Any guess as to the reason for this!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

Answers:
There are a number of possible reasons for your experience!.
First let me say this!. Many of our body parts come in pairs, but they are not necessarily identical or symmetrical!. There may be a difference in the thickness if the contact lenses, due to a difference in the prescriptions!. The lower powered contact lens would have a tendency to more readily fold!.
Your left eyelid may be a little tighter than your right lid and thus exert more force on the lens when you blink!.
There be an inflammatory reaction taking place on the under side of your left eyelid which literally grabs the contact lens when you blink!. This may be due to what I call the "second lens syndrome"!. By that I mean it is the second lens that you remove at night and you may be spending much less time cleaning it!. The dirty lens will irritate your eyelid each time you blink during the next day, thus leading to the reaction and the movement!.
You should schedule an appointment with your eye doctor and have the situation evaluated, treated and fixed!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Also ask your doctor to check the size and curve of the left lens!. Since we are not always symmetrical, the left lens may not be fitting as well as the right!. It is rare to wear two different sizes or brands of contacts, but I have had patients who needed it before!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
it could be that that lens gets dry faster so it moves around more!. try to take it out if you think it is going to happen and put more solution on it!. or it could have something to do with the shape of you eye possiblyWww@Answer-Health@Com
When i used to use soft lenses this would happen; they would move and shift and looked blurry!. My doctor recommended hard lenses and i love them better then soft!. you only need to get used to them!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
