my dad had a massive bleeding in his brain, and because of this he couldn't blink his eyes. this made his eye so dry. the doctor put contact lens, supposedly to protect his eye from dryness and irritation, but he got a weird reaction from it. eventually, with our hearts breaking, his eye had to be removed. do you have any bad experiences with contact lenses?

Contact lenses do have their own problems and negatives...if not used properly !
To be frank, I never advise anybody, for the contact lenses !
Best wishes !

I've been wearing contact lenses since I was in in college and i have no serious problems with it. I made sure when i am using it,i soak it first with rinsing,soaking and disinfecting solution and i made sur that my hands are lint free because it gives a gritty feeling to my eye.I am using disposable soft contact lenses usable for two months time.
