Question: If I slept with contacts in, how long should I wait before I put them in again?
I accidentally slept with my contacts in so I had them in probably for a total of 22 hours... How long should I wait until it is okay to put them in again?

I would first put tears in your eyes, then take them out and clean them. Let your eyes sit for maybe 24 hours? Wear glasses today :)



Give it 24 hours, but if your eyes are red give it until the redness clears. Also give your contacts a long soak and clean them twice throwing the solution away. Using a new set is ideal but probably unnecessary. The risk with wearing at night is really oxygen deprivation although it does give a slightly higher infection risk as well.



Tht waz a very bad thing to do. Ur VERY luckey tht they didnt roll backbehind your eyes. So u should wait a few hours and just repededly put visine eye drops in your eyes!



Throw that pair away, and you can probably put a new pair in tomorrow.
