Left my hard contacts in for 36 hours once in college due to driving all night to beat a snowstorm back to school. Started out feeling like I had something in my lens, ended up feeling like that something was a knife, with tears out of that eye running constantly down my cheek. Slogged through two feet of snow to the college infirmary (you KNOW I felt bad)only to be told I had a corneal abrasion from leaving the lenses in too long. Put some yellow goop in my eye and told me to put it in twice a day. I was going, " Yeah, right, yellow goop for this horrible pain." Lo and behold it worked like a charm upon first application. Cleared it right up, but the pain was excruciating before the goop.
