Hhmm this doesn't sound like something you will get with lens wear. I over wear my lenses a lot but only get aching eyes, a really bad headache and soreness. I would go and see your GP as well and tell him your symptoms as it could just be a coincidence?

Best of luck with it, love Claire X x X

Craig, Sorry to hear how sore your eye is after having some stitches removed. This is very common and makes sense. Pulling your eye about to remove foreign bodies isn't normal!! LOL!! really hoping it settles down soon. Great news on a lens being fitted! By the time all your stitches are removed the...

It was great meeting up at the social! A good turn out and some new faces :lol: Really hoping that everyone enjoyed themselves and got a lot of support and answers to any questions. Lucy had a wonderful time, though was so tired after seeing so many people. :wink: Hehe, it was loads of fun though. K...

Good luck with it, love Claire X x X

Hi Carole, Really sorry that your son is having bad headaches accompanied with nausea and feeling dizzy. Really bad headaches can cause the last two symptoms and this is without any vision problems. I get really bad headaches if I don't wear lenses for a while, I think that my brain has difficulty t...

Elizabeth, Oh no, I am sorry this sounds really bad. Have you reduced your wearing time, or used any eye drops at all? Are your eyes drying out or painful all the time? Piggy backing is a solution when wearing a lens is painful, so this is not good if you can't wear them anymore. I am sorry if you a...

Dan,

That is really excellent news! It is so good to hear success stories I really hope that everything stays stable for you and you can continue playing golf. I understand that it would be extremely hard if you cannot watch the ball in the air!!
