If they fit correctly, you should not feel them.
You might, especially if you have an ocular surface issue, such as dry eye, or your contacts are poorly fitting.
I do not feel my soft high water content in my eyes.
Yes you may feel them but after a while you may not notice them
If they are a bad brand or a wrong fit
Hello,
Yes, poor fitting or improperly cared for contact lens can give a foreign body sensation and cause problems. That why contact lenses should only be fitted by and dispensed by an eye care professional
