ok when i use visine i put it usually in while i have my contacts in. it gets rid of all the red and makes me open my eyes for the most part, so tahts all good. but usually in the night hours(after 7), i put visine in, and about an hour later my contacts start to feel real dry and i blink a ton and it real uncomfortable. this will still happen if i take out my contacts, put the visine in, and then put my cnotacts back in. anyone have any ideas?
Put the visine in, and then put the saline solution drops in.
or get visine tears or visine for contacts, and put that in after you put in the other one. visine tears is like a river running through your eyes, splashing and flooding everything, ahahah
yo yeah, I got the visine for contacts, shit is good, if my friend wants to use my visine and he doesn't have contacts, do you think it will still get rid of the redness for him? I'd assume so but jeahhh
idk i got it once and ym friends like you fucking idiot thats the wrong visine, it fucks with ur eyes if you have no contacts in. and i odnt think it worked for me but it was so long ago. jsut steal some visine L.R. i swear by that stuff, works for like 4-6 hours!
disclaimer: the only thing i steal is visine, because its so neccesarry and overpriced. dont consider me the type who takes what isnt his.
Ok, I've worn contacts since I was 16 and a close family friend runs an vision correction practice.
First of all, NEVER put non-contact rated drops in if you're wearing contacts. Depending on the specific recipe in the drops and the material of your contacts, you could be breaking down the compounds in the lenses and the result can be absorbed into your tissues and eye. It can cause severe irritation and in my case, a raging migraine-like headache.
Plain old saline solution is fine to flush your eyes with (wearing contacts or not), but know that straight saline is not a lubricant, and when you flush your eye you are also getting rid of a lot of natural fluids and mucous your body normally produces to protect your peepers.
Best bet is to use something specifically made for refreshing contacts, they usually have a form of silicone that acts as a lube, and the buffers and surfactants in them won't fubar the plastic compounds in your lenses. The only thing weird that I've found with these is that they make your eyes feel a little more 'gluey,' and by that I mean you can accumulate more eye grit in the corner of your eye.

Edit: Oh and putting contact-drops in your eyes when not wearing contacts is perfectly safe. ;)
