What are the signs & symptoms of eye problems?

Question

Asked for Female, 24 Years

Hello! I am a 24 year old girl and I have been facing severe itching and redness in my eyes for the past 2 days. I wear contact lenses and I suspect that this might have happened because of it. I generally keep my contact lenses in the solution they give and I follow the instructions before wearing them. I don’t know if this problem will ever go. What can be the probable eye problem symptoms and when should I go to the doctor? Will this pass or will it be really serious? Please help me!!
