So since I went out this afternoon and got stinging sweat in my eyes I noticed the ocular pressure disappear. Just took a shower and with water in the he eye I could feel some surface moving against the eyeball but it was thinner and smaller in diameter. I think the eye’s already dissolving it. So, in case you ever wondered what if a contact went back there and never came out. The skin around the eye still feels a little taut, we’ll see how that’s doing tomorrow.
Woke up and couldn’t feel the skin taut anymore, poured some water in my eye and there’s something fragile, brittle, and breaking down in there
Man see an eye doctor about this
My logic is
- If this is happening to me, it’s surely happened to other people.
- Some of them surely didn’t go to a doctor.
- If this had progressed to any serious issue, surely you would hear about that as a danger of contacts.
- I haven’t, so 🤷
Have you at least consulted Doctor Google?
- ‘Although it’s possible for a contact lens to get stuck to the surface of your eye, the good news is that there’s simply no way it can get lost, or trapped at the back. The anatomy of the eye itself acts as a barrier, which ensures that the lens will always remain on the surface, so you’ll be able to quickly and easily retrieve it.’
- 'Contacts can get stuck under your eyelid, but it’s impossible for them to go behind your eye. Your eyelids connect to your eye forming a barrier that prevents objects from going “behind” it.’
Yes, it’s in the pocket of the eyelid, against the eyeball, all within the ocular cavity behind bone, stuck away from exposure to air.
I’m getting a little weary of this point – “There’s NO WAY a contact can get trapped 'at the back’, it’s just under the eyelid! Which is where it goes when it rolls around 'to the back’.”
