How long has it been since you put in a fresh pair?

Be sure to wash your hands twice before inserting and handling contacts.

Don't put contacts down on any surface. Bathroom counters are loaded with bacteria everywhere.

It's possible you have a minute tear in the lens.

I posted what happened to my ex-wife's eye with a contact lens irritation situation on the board. She got permanent scarring on the cornea from a psuedomoneus infection all from not washing her hands when she placed in her lens. (there was psuedomoneous bacteria on her makeup which had transferred to her hand)
i didnt put the right one in left eye, i threw it out, and put left one (contact was fine) into right. fresh pair? 1 day (for monthly contacts). always always wash my hands before handling em. never would put em on a surface..

it cant be a tear, this happens with every contact i put on
