Dry eyes because of contacts.

2018-03-19 06:46:13
I wear soft contacts, and I find my eyes get dry and they hurt a little, can I use Refresh tears eyedrops while my contacts are on?? If not which eyedrops should I use? Should I take out my contacts and put on normal dry eyes drops and then wear them again? Or should I get proper rewetting eyedrops? Which is better?
