I forgot to take off contacts

When I went to bed today and when I woke up to wash my face I relized my contacts where still in and they were really red when i took them out.I was wondering can something bad happen like go blind and is there anything eles bad that can happen if so what? Should I go see my eye doctor tomorrow because I don't wanna loose my vision is what I'm most afraid of my eyesight I already as bad as -3.75

Also my vision has been very blurry since and things I was able to see clearly without contacts or glasses are now very hard to see even when squinting it's been more then 12 hours since this happened thought they would go back to normal but only gotten worse

its not good to do this long term but you're not going to have major problems from doing this once
You are certainly not going to loose your vision. Keep your contacts out till your eyes stop being red. It'll probably take 24 hours or so. If they aer getting worse after 24 hours then go to the doctor as you may have an infection but dont' worry you are going to become blind. Getting your eyes into the fresh air will also help. Your eyesight will return to normal, its just takes a while. -3.75 isn't very bad vision by the way.
