In my right eye it feels like something is in my eye when I wear my contacts and it is extremely dry and itchy more towards the duck in my eye. My eye is red. I changed out my contacts to see if that was it and it still felt like that. Then this morning when I woke up everything was darker out my right eye. Some mornings I do have a discharge coming out my eyes aka eye boogers. Can anybody help me.? Could it be the wrong lenses?? I've been only wearing this brand for 6 months

    Suggest you go to your doctor as it could be conjunctivitis.  This normally easily fixed but you may have to leave out your contacts for a bit.  Hope you get it cleared up soon.

    It could be Blepharitis. I have this eye condition & have the same exact sensation when I put in my contacts & have a lot of discharge around my eyes & eyelids.
