Sleeping with contact lenses on. How bad is it?!
Question: Sleeping with contact lenses on. How bad is it?
So yesterday I went to a friend's house and forgot my case and solution for my contacts so I slept with them on.
It's now 7:20pm and I'm still wearing them since yesterday afternoon.
My eyes feel fine, they're not sore, contacts are not annoying me or anything.
Is it really bad to do that?
Is it ok if I keep them on until 12am or something? (I have to study and I've lost my glasses)

Answers:
Your eyes will be fine. I accidently sleep in mine once in awhile, and the worst that happens is my eyes dry out. It's definetely bad to sleep in them all the time.. it can really screw up your eyes and increases the possibility of not being able to wear contacts anymore. But if it rarely happens, I wouldn't be worried.
