I went to the primary care dr because i was experiencing severe eye irritation (general redness and with a red circle around my iris, and "watering" or weeping eye) in my right eye.The primary care dr referred me to my eye dr for an urgent consultation.I was given a diagnosis of a viral eye infection in my right eye.After two weeks of wearing glasses so my eye could heal.I started trying to transition back to contacts, but the condition worsened every time i wore contacts.I began to wonder if the contacts themselves were the issue.(my prescription is different for each eye, so the contacts for my right eye are not the same as for my left.My left eye remained unaffected.) for ten days i tried wearing other contacts that i had (in my purse or gym bag) and that were from a different lot.I found that i can wear contacts from other lots with no issue, but if i try to wear contacts from this particular lot, my eye becomes red and inflamed again.I suspect something is amiss with this particular lot of contact lenses.I saw both a primary car dr and my eye dr on this date.My eye dr (b)(6), diagnosed a viral eye infection.Fda safety report id# (b)(4).
