Answer #1

That sounds like a bacterial eye infection or a pretty significant irritation. I would stop using the contacts, throw them away, go to the doctor, and wear your glasses in the mean time. It could be as simple of a fix as using new lenses, or you could need Vigamox drops or some other type of antibacterial eye medicine.

Answer #2

Get a tissue and pick them
