Don't splash water with contact lenses in the eyes. You can try to blink and keep the eyes moist, if still feels dry try to remove the contact lens for sometime.
Next Steps
Yes, you can use lubricant eye drops for a short period of time.
Health Tips
If symptoms persist consult online / offline for detailed evaluation to rule out other causes.
