“Have you seen the video of the woman who had 27 contact lenses in her eye?" 😳⁠
⁠
This 2017 viral video brought on a slew of questions (and concerns) from our patients. Questions like, "can a contact lens go behind your eye", were not uncommon.⁠
⁠
The short answer is...no. The protective barrier of the conjunctiva prevents a lens from going behind the eye. However, occasionally a contact lens can dislodge (most commonly under the upper lid rather than the lower lid) and patients have trouble removing it.⁠
⁠
If you think you lost a lens in your eye, don't panic but instead try these tips:⁠
✅ Try flushing your eye with saline to loosen up the lens. ⁠
✅ While looking down, gently massage the upper eyelid to try and dislodge the contact.⁠
⁠
Pro tip: Avoid sticking your fingers in your eye to fish around for the contacts - I've seen more issues from a patient trying to remove a contact lens that isn't there than from a contact lens actually being stuck.⁠
⁠
If the eye feels red or painful, see your eye doctor. We can help!⁠
