After wearing soft contacts (Acuvue 2) for 4 months without problems I developed some kind of strange feeling - it probably isnt a dry eye (that is what my opthalmologist said), but when there is a low humidity of the air (sunny days) I feel burning in my eyes and as if there were an eyelash in my eye. I've met twice with my opthalmologist recently and he said that winter is a more difficult time for contact wearers. He advised me to use Clerz drops on more frequent basis. It did not help. When my eyes start to burn the drops seem not to change anything. I met with him second time and he said that it could have been caused by some alergic reaction of my eyes. He gave me Patanol drops to use twice a day (before I put contacts on and after I take them out), but after few days my eyes feel the same. My lens prescription is OD -9.5 OS -6.5 (bc 8.7 dia 14) with cylindrical correction in spectacles worn over them. Do you have any ideas what the cause of that could be? Has anyone experienced the same thing? I dont want to give up on those contact lenses because my vision is much better in them than in glasses (not mentioning the ugly look of thick lenses in glasses). Thanks for help Eugene
