What To Do If Having Blurry Eyesight Eve With Glasses And Lenses?

Hi, recently I have discovered that my eyes are red after just several hours of wearing contact lenses, the vision gets a little blurry sometimes when I have them on as well, I have astigmstism and is wearing toric lenses, I have also discovered that my right eyes eyesight may be better than my left, because the left eye is always blurrier with either contact lenses or glasses...

I admit I have worn my contact lenses for 12 hours before, and my eyes get really red and a little painful before for a several times... But each time it seemed to take care of itself and recovered... So I didn't see the doctor, but now I seem to be suffering with blurrier eyesights even with glasses, is there any explanation to this? Thank you!!!

Ophthalmologist,  's  Response
Hello
It seems from the history that you are having refractive error and you are using contact lenses.
Blurring of vision, redness and pain after wearing lenses for 12 hours indicates corneal edema because of over use of contact lenses or because of tight fit of contact lenses.
Blurring of vision even with spectacles indicates change in refractive error.
Hence I advice you to consult your ophthalmologist for examination and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
