What are the effects of chlorine on contacts?!


Question: What are the effects of chlorine on contacts!?
I spent a good part of the day in the pool today and wore my contacts as usual!. All went well untill about 3 hours after I got home!. My eyes very really bothering me so I tried drops which actually seemed to make it worse!. So, I went to take them out for the day so I could give my eyes a good rubbing and relief!.
I had the hardest time I have ever had getting my contacts out despite all of the extra solution I had to use!. I alomost had to pry them out!
What's the deal!?!?!?
I though as long as my contacts didn't float away in the water that I was all good!? No!?
Help, cuz I'm about to do this for like a week solid on vacation in Jamaica!.
Again, I've done this before and had no problems!.
I am however using a new brand of contacts, O2Optix, I think, sumin like that!.
Any ideas!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
