Redness in eye

Question

Redness in eye

Asked for Male, 20 Years

I use silicone hydrogel toric contact lens ( cooper vision biofinity) which allows 6-7 days of continues wear. Recently I slept for 3-4 hours in afternoon wearing them. I woke up with red eyes, no itching or pain, just red eyes. Also the contacts got stuck in my eyes so i had to add a few drops and take them off with slight effort. Is this normal?
