What Causes Blurred Vision, Pain And Redness After Getting Soap In Eye?

I accidently put in my contact that got contaminated with soap. I immediately took it out, cleaned it and my eye and then put it in. I now have cloudy vision in that eye, everything looks like im seeing through fog. There is slight pain around my eye socket, lights have a rainbow halo around them when I look through that eye. My eye was red when it happened. But I put clear eyes for contacts in and that cleared it up. Any idea if it will clear up overnight or will I need a doctors appointment?

Hello. welcome to HCM. This is due to chemical injury of the eye. Better take an advice from the optholmologist because i feel there is injury and healing can be fastened by putting the drops. Take care
