Answers:
A corneal scratch usually heals itself within a few days, if you left the contacts out!. That shouldn't be a problem!.

But what could likely cause you problems down the road is doing stupid things like leaving your contacts in for 4 or 5 days!.

You say you know it's bad!.!.!.so why do you do it !?Www@Answer-Health@Com
