Burning sensation while putting contacts

2018-11-09 02:46:21
Hi, I have been using contact lens from past 6 months ( b+l soflens59, renu lens solutions, moistane eye drops every night as the doctor suggested ). Recently I am feeling a little burning sensation in eyes when I put the lens. This sensation remians for around 30 seconds to a minute and doesn't occur every day. Could you please tell me what could be the reason? Asking in this forum as I am unable to go to the same doctor as I am staying in a different place now.

You can put some lubricant eye drops e.g. teardrop 3to4 times daily. And clean the lens thoroughly before use. You can use lubricant eye drops with contact lenses.
