@@charlieyes4946 how expensive are eye surgeons in the us?!?? My British brain can’t comprehend going into financial ruin because of healthcare prices ;-;
most of the times it happens due to your eye moistute content dropped due to long use. Therefore your contact lens got slightly dry and stuck to your sclera. If it happens to you, put in a lot of saline solution into your eye. Close your eyes for a while to let the lens soak up all the moisture. Don't panic. Then after a while, roll your eyes and the lens should be back to center. Remove them.
My roommate and I were drunk and he asked me to help find his lost contact. I poked in his eye for 10 minutes for him to then remember he wasn't wearing contacts that night...
I heard a story once about someone my friend knew (reliable I know) who lost their contacts and spent hours poking around his eye. Scratched his cornea only to find out he was clawing at his eye since he had forgotten he had removed them the night before…
@yomoxica I assume it's usually a case of wearing the contacts too long, the contacts drying out, etc. Basically, our tear film protects the eye, right? Tear film includes a nice layer of mucus, then watery "tears" with its enzymes and all, then a thin oily layer to prevent evaporation etc. Contact lenses, depending on the material interact with the natural tear film in different ways. And leave em in too long or if you have dry eyes or whatever -- friction damage
He means go to a hospital to schedule a consult with a primary care physician who will put it off for more urgent patients then see you just to tell you you need to see an ophthalmologist so they give you a referral to one who will then schedule your appointment sometime within the next few months. Funny thing is, this scenario is more true in places like canada and the EU than in the US.
More like the ED registrar will ask for an Ophthal consult, Ophthal calls back and says: no slit lamp exam, no referral 😅 Patient goes home, contact comes out in the shower or something.
@@itsgonnabeanaurfromme That's nonsense. For acute things like that you can see an optician in many countries, or you can get same day GP referral to acute opthalmology.

When I was a kid I had a seedpod covered in spikes blow into my eye during a storm. It was enormous, got stuck in my fornix, and was one of the most painful things I've ever experienced. Despite being as thick around as a quarter, it got stuck so deep that it wasn't visible. The eye doctor pulled it out, without even scratching my cornea. A contact ain't nothing to worry about.
I was doing construction and a tiny chunk of aluminum got past my safety glasses and lodged in my cornea. I had to run to my truck and pull it out with my fingernails. Hurt like a mfr.
When I was a kid, I was playing around with a friend and he accidentally scratched my cornea with his fingernail. Whatever was underneath his fingernail got lodged in my cornea and started growing into my eye. I had to see several specialists over the course of a week to get a specially developed drug to kill off whatever it was.
Happened to me on a Sunday morning. It was after my birthday party (I haven't slept all night and was probably still drunk). I was removing my eye makeup with a wipe and did it quite rough. My contact lense disappeared and I obviously panicked. I biked to the ER, but I'm terrified of anyone touching my eyes (even doctors) so I desperately tried to get it out myself. When I was waiting in the line to the ER I started rubbing my eye like I did before and the contact lense came back to the right place. But the answer is, if it's the weekend just go to the ER
In spite of a few people thinking I bite my nails, I love that nursing taught me to keep my fingernails short when watching videos like this. Also, if I wasn't gay yet, women's nails would be a big motivation to keep my soft sensitive bits away from those things.
Went to an urgent care doctor (internal medicine doc tho) to find my disposable one. He looked with a lamp. Said 100% it's not in there. TWO WEEKS LATER... I blinked, and it fell onto my keyboard...wtf! wow
If anyone ever has this happen, just roll your eyes in either direction for a while. It’ll either come back to your pupil or fall out of the corner of your eye.
@@AgagnierAmerica, we have private healthcare if you're lucky and work full time your job might give you insurance which wont cover anything under a certain amount, if they cover it and thats a big if.

Sir, I am from the UK. While it is free, one cannot simply "just go see a doctor" you have to have been dead for at least 24 months before they consider making an appointment with you.
@@a_angry_bunny Not really though. In the US, you only have the option of either being insured by a very good insurance associated to your job or company and hope the copay is low enough and it covers what you need. Or having to pay out of pocket an insane $$$ amount, an arm and a leg, if no insurance. Those who don’t have insurance for whatever reason, are in between jobs or transitioning between states or companies, or for whatever reason aren’t covered at the moment of an issue… are f*cked. The hospital bills there posted frequently online are insane, even in necessary ER situations, and even for minor procedures like the one to resolve the problem in this video. In places like Canada (most provinces), you have both options: the free universal healthcare coverage, for which you can take a free a appointment to see a specific doctor, which will take the time it takes depending where you live and what your situation is… Or you can also pay in the private sector at a private clinic, out of pocket, to see a specialist. Though it will be $, it is still an option, not “forbidden” or anything, and it costs just like in the US… even cheaper, as medical care is cheaper overall in Canada even in private sector (and medications in pharmacies are noticeably cheaper as well, US people go over there to get their medicines very frequently, or get them shipped from there, specially with the insulin spike that happened in the last decade, which was something insane like 1000$+ a vial in the US and only ~4$ in Canada). Or you could have a good insurance with your job which can cover seeing a specialist in a private clinic, which happens often with good jobs. So either way, you have the best of both worlds, whichever you can personally afford. The availability of the free public universal health care coverage doesn’t stop individuals for opting in to the private sector, if they so desire and have the financial means for it. Not sure how it all works in the UK, but I do know the NHS covers a whole lot of stuff for all people, regardless of income or background, and hospital visits are free. There are obviously glaring problems with wait times to see a specialist, but at least the ER is free if you break a leg and you don’t need to worry about paying tens of thousands of dollars on top of the immense pain you are in, nor are people dying by avoiding going to the ER after an emergency injury, like in the US with the guy in a video avoiding calling an ambulance after a fracture and bleeding everywhere, out of fear of going bankrupt and being financially in a bad place already. That sh*t is bonkers. Also, there’s probably the two options system in the UK as well, I dunno why there wouldn’t: there’s the free universal healthcare institution (NHS) that covers everyone that isn’t already covered by private insurance. Then there’s private insurance (through one’s company/work or paying for it monthly if one can afford it), THEN there’s also paying out of pocket if people are financially well off and can afford paying $$$ to immediately go see a specialist at a private clinic. Private care is not forbidden in countries with free universal healthcare coverage lmao, some people from the US seem to always forget that. There’s the two options system. In the US… you only have one option: everything works through gigantic private for-profit insurance companies, and the whole system is a mess of corporations preying on vulnerable sick people. Meaning several millions who are uninsured can die like dogs from not getting proper care and avoiding calling an ambulance or going to the ER even when they absolutely NEED urgent care… or go bankrupt from a single ER visit. And those who are on Medicare, in the states that allow that form of social safety net at least, don’t have as good as coverage as people in developed countries with universal healthcare. That means several 10s of millions of people, if not a 100 million people at least, in the US. Which is crazy. And the % of GDP that is used by the government as a net $G investment into maintaining the universal healthcare system in Canada, UK, Germany or other countries with it… is still way lower than what the US already spends in its faulty system, giving away tens of Billions of $ every year not to their OWN system, but to insurance for profit corporations and their crony executives. It is both a more expensive system for taxpayers, than the system there is in other countries, and it is also less efficient and lets a substantial % of the population to be completely devoid of any kind of affordable healthcare, on the debt of bankruptcy, or dying in the streets like dogs. It is insane. And some insane Republicans still brainwash the population into thinking: “we have it better than in other countries!” It is a lie preached by rich senate and congress psychopaths, being paid tons of $$$ and corrupted by top insurance rabid psychopathic top executives in those for profit scheme corporations. It is all a very sad state of affairs still in the 21st century, which is bonkers.
@@zkcrisyee I'm not reading all that but basically you're saying that the US healthcare is expensive which doesn't disagree what I said. Also, considering other countries turn to the US for specialty care, we do have some of the best healthcare. The issue isn't the quality it is just ludicrously expensive. Last but not least, stop blaming all the issues on one side or another. That's what they want you to do. Republicans and Democrats are two sides of the same coin and neither has your interests at heart.
I lost my contact for the first time in my life when i came back from prom. It had to be faulty or something because it hurt my eye the whole party. When i came back finally, i tried to pull it out and it kinda dissapeared so i assumed it fell out. left it at that i was too tired to look for it Well i wake up the next day, vision all funny. I go to the mirror to check what's going on and behold, the contact never left. I freaked out a bit lol
@@Davidscomix except the constant stinging feeling in my eye it was pretty decent, actually. We even snuck out for a couple of beers at some point. Good times, good times
You don't understand how much I needed this information when a stray bit of gravel got stuck up there from a passing cart wheel (yes I was that unlucky, also it was tiny, but felt ginormous, thought I had a whole Minecraft gravel mine up there)
Don't go to an eye doctor--Look up and back down, the contact will eventually come back to the front. (Or down and then up if it fell downward) I once had a contact lost in my eye for hours and I didn't notice (I thought it had fallen out) until it came back around again. Don't freak out, they're made to be in your eyes, and you will be fine.
Same LMAO, whenever I fall asleep with my contacts they usually "disappear". So, I'll wake up and my vision will be blurry and I'll think they came out and start searching the bed and pillow before giving up and then my vision will be magically clear ten minutes later and I'm like "oh"
@@youngeshmoney Oh, please be careful. You shouldn't fall asleep too long with contact lenses in your eye. They will dry up and could damage your eyes :c
I'm an optical assistant... And also a long time contact lens wearer. Sometimes moving your eye will allow it to slide back into place. Gently massaging the lid in a downwards motion is also helpful. However, if the lens is torn, or if it slides too far up under the eyelid, it can become extremely difficult to remove without seeing an optometrist or ophthalmologist. If the lens doesn't come out relatively easily it's better to seek help than to irritate your eye or scratch your sclera.
Haha my optometrist taught me to pull my upper lid down, and look up, then release your lid and look down, and try it a couple times and you will loosen it up and bring it down.
I worked with a pediatric ophthalmologist for many years. On one occasion parents brought in their young daughter who had watched her aunt put in her contact lenses. The little girl found a sequin in the house and put it on her eye like a contact lens. The parents tried to remove it but she wouldn't let them get near her. Her parents brought her to us and while I took their information I casually said "Can I look at your eye". And she said "sure". I could see the sequin with my naked eye so I just took a cotton swab, soaked it with a topical anesthetic, put one drop in her eye(which she let me do)and lightly touched the sequin and out it came!
Thanks for relieving that anxiety, now to hype myself up to call a cab, explain the entire situation, riddled with anxiety and barely making any sense only to find out the cab driver barely speaks English and have to somehow find the address on google maps while blinded, then when we finally get to the clinic I pay the driver, then explain the entire situation to the receptionist, still riddled with anxiety and barely making sense, then waiting an hour to see a doctor then explain the entire situation again only this time I’m crying like a baby, pass out due to too much heavy breathing, wake up in a hospital, try to explain everything to the nurse, then told I can go home, call the cab, and spend the next three nights awake wondering how crazy I must’ve looked to everyone involved

If it's to do with healthcare misconceptions, someone is worried about it. So many people do not understand their own anatomy, how it works, or what can go wrong. Lots are worried about ridiculous things but not real dangers. See it everyday at the hospital.
I have been wearing contact since 10yrs, sometimes this happens when eyes get extremely dry. It's not a big deal to panic, some tears and it eventually adjusts to normal and get on with daily life
Had a contact lens broke apart in my eye and for weeks I was worried parts of it never left my eye and now imbedded in the back of my eye forever and I panicked for a week-only if this video exists ten years ago that’ll save me a week of anxiety 😂
Had the same thing happen to me a few years back. The worst thing was looking for ages to find more pieces, not knowing if there even were any left and the constant paranoia afterwards.
“Just go see an eye doctor” Damn now i gotta wait a whole month to get something out that would’ve taken me 5 seconds to do. 😂 Not to mention the bill!
This was the dumbest part of the whole thing. Yeah 3 months and 800 dollars later if you don't have insurance or have not paid the yearly deductible yet.
This happened to my friend and the opthalmologist just made him do some eye movements and took the lense out and charged him nothing. Just like when a screw in my glasses fell and they replaced it for free. But then again I don't live in the US

When I was a kid I had a seedpod covered in spikes blow into my eye during a storm. It was enormous, got stuck in my fornix, and was one of the most painful things I've ever experienced. Despite being as thick around as a quarter, it got stuck so deep that it wasn't visible. The eye doctor pulled it out, without even scratching my cornea. A contact ain't nothing to worry about.
yeaaaaahhhh i'm never going outside again 😅
I was doing construction and a tiny chunk of aluminum got past my safety glasses and lodged in my cornea. I had to run to my truck and pull it out with my fingernails. Hurt like a mfr.
I'm a veterinarian. You know foxtails, those dried grass awns? You know dogs' eyes? Yeah it happens all the time. Also all other parts of the dog.
When I was a kid, I was playing around with a friend and he accidentally scratched my cornea with his fingernail.
Whatever was underneath his fingernail got lodged in my cornea and started growing into my eye.
I had to see several specialists over the course of a week to get a specially developed drug to kill off whatever it was.
Whew! That sounds awful. But praise God, your eye was fine. God blessed that doc with good hands and skill.
"Just come to see an eye doctor"
*looses contact lense after 1pm on a Friday*
"Well f#ck"
OMG I was just wondering what to do if it’s midnight…I forgot the WEEKENDS OMG
Happened to me on a Sunday morning. It was after my birthday party (I haven't slept all night and was probably still drunk). I was removing my eye makeup with a wipe and did it quite rough. My contact lense disappeared and I obviously panicked. I biked to the ER, but I'm terrified of anyone touching my eyes (even doctors) so I desperately tried to get it out myself. When I was waiting in the line to the ER I started rubbing my eye like I did before and the contact lense came back to the right place.
But the answer is, if it's the weekend just go to the ER
@@meggierocks Yeah, it's a joke about how he always says that eye doctors disappear after absurd early times.
Don't worry, it's just in your eyelid pocket..... It'll be there on Monday
Go to the emergency
In spite of a few people thinking I bite my nails, I love that nursing taught me to keep my fingernails short when watching videos like this.
Also, if I wasn't gay yet, women's nails would be a big motivation to keep my soft sensitive bits away from those things.
I'm relieved that I don't have to worry about fallen hairs that disappear in there now 💀

Sir, I am from the UK. While it is free, one cannot simply "just go see a doctor" you have to have been dead for at least 24 months before they consider making an appointment with you.
The one advantage to the American healthcare is that while it does cost an arm and a leg, you at least don't have to wait forever for most things.
@@a_angry_bunny Not really though. In the US, you only have the option of either being insured by a very good insurance associated to your job or company and hope the copay is low enough and it covers what you need. Or having to pay out of pocket an insane $$$ amount, an arm and a leg, if no insurance. Those who don’t have insurance for whatever reason, are in between jobs or transitioning between states or companies, or for whatever reason aren’t covered at the moment of an issue… are f*cked. The hospital bills there posted frequently online are insane, even in necessary ER situations, and even for minor procedures like the one to resolve the problem in this video.
In places like Canada (most provinces), you have both options: the free universal healthcare coverage, for which you can take a free a appointment to see a specific doctor, which will take the time it takes depending where you live and what your situation is…
Or you can also pay in the private sector at a private clinic, out of pocket, to see a specialist. Though it will be $, it is still an option, not “forbidden” or anything, and it costs just like in the US… even cheaper, as medical care is cheaper overall in Canada even in private sector (and medications in pharmacies are noticeably cheaper as well, US people go over there to get their medicines very frequently, or get them shipped from there, specially with the insulin spike that happened in the last decade, which was something insane like 1000$+ a vial in the US and only ~4$ in Canada). Or you could have a good insurance with your job which can cover seeing a specialist in a private clinic, which happens often with good jobs. So either way, you have the best of both worlds, whichever you can personally afford. The availability of the free public universal health care coverage doesn’t stop individuals for opting in to the private sector, if they so desire and have the financial means for it.
Not sure how it all works in the UK, but I do know the NHS covers a whole lot of stuff for all people, regardless of income or background, and hospital visits are free. There are obviously glaring problems with wait times to see a specialist, but at least the ER is free if you break a leg and you don’t need to worry about paying tens of thousands of dollars on top of the immense pain you are in, nor are people dying by avoiding going to the ER after an emergency injury, like in the US with the guy in a video avoiding calling an ambulance after a fracture and bleeding everywhere, out of fear of going bankrupt and being financially in a bad place already. That sh*t is bonkers.
Also, there’s probably the two options system in the UK as well, I dunno why there wouldn’t: there’s the free universal healthcare institution (NHS) that covers everyone that isn’t already covered by private insurance. Then there’s private insurance (through one’s company/work or paying for it monthly if one can afford it), THEN there’s also paying out of pocket if people are financially well off and can afford paying $$$ to immediately go see a specialist at a private clinic.
Private care is not forbidden in countries with free universal healthcare coverage lmao, some people from the US seem to always forget that. There’s the two options system. In the US… you only have one option: everything works through gigantic private for-profit insurance companies, and the whole system is a mess of corporations preying on vulnerable sick people. Meaning several millions who are uninsured can die like dogs from not getting proper care and avoiding calling an ambulance or going to the ER even when they absolutely NEED urgent care… or go bankrupt from a single ER visit. And those who are on Medicare, in the states that allow that form of social safety net at least, don’t have as good as coverage as people in developed countries with universal healthcare. That means several 10s of millions of people, if not a 100 million people at least, in the US. Which is crazy. And the % of GDP that is used by the government as a net $G investment into maintaining the universal healthcare system in Canada, UK, Germany or other countries with it… is still way lower than what the US already spends in its faulty system, giving away tens of Billions of $ every year not to their OWN system, but to insurance for profit corporations and their crony executives. It is both a more expensive system for taxpayers, than the system there is in other countries, and it is also less efficient and lets a substantial % of the population to be completely devoid of any kind of affordable healthcare, on the debt of bankruptcy, or dying in the streets like dogs. It is insane. And some insane Republicans still brainwash the population into thinking: “we have it better than in other countries!” It is a lie preached by rich senate and congress psychopaths, being paid tons of $$$ and corrupted by top insurance rabid psychopathic top executives in those for profit scheme corporations. It is all a very sad state of affairs still in the 21st century, which is bonkers.
@@zkcrisyee
I'm not reading all that but basically you're saying that the US healthcare is expensive which doesn't disagree what I said. Also, considering other countries turn to the US for specialty care, we do have some of the best healthcare. The issue isn't the quality it is just ludicrously expensive.
Last but not least, stop blaming all the issues on one side or another. That's what they want you to do. Republicans and Democrats are two sides of the same coin and neither has your interests at heart.

I lost my contact for the first time in my life when i came back from prom. It had to be faulty or something because it hurt my eye the whole party. When i came back finally, i tried to pull it out and it kinda dissapeared so i assumed it fell out. left it at that i was too tired to look for it
Well i wake up the next day, vision all funny. I go to the mirror to check what's going on and behold, the contact never left. I freaked out a bit lol

You don't understand how much I needed this information when a stray bit of gravel got stuck up there from a passing cart wheel (yes I was that unlucky, also it was tiny, but felt ginormous, thought I had a whole Minecraft gravel mine up there)
“It does not go back into the brain” is something I was not concerned about until the exact second he said it
Don't go to an eye doctor--Look up and back down, the contact will eventually come back to the front. (Or down and then up if it fell downward) I once had a contact lost in my eye for hours and I didn't notice (I thought it had fallen out) until it came back around again. Don't freak out, they're made to be in your eyes, and you will be fine.
Make sure to use lots of artificial tears eye drops to help it slide around easily!
just make sure it isn't there when you sleep or for weeks on end lol
Same LMAO, whenever I fall asleep with my contacts they usually "disappear". So, I'll wake up and my vision will be blurry and I'll think they came out and start searching the bed and pillow before giving up and then my vision will be magically clear ten minutes later and I'm like "oh"
@@youngeshmoney Oh, please be careful. You shouldn't fall asleep too long with contact lenses in your eye. They will dry up and could damage your eyes :c
I'm an optical assistant... And also a long time contact lens wearer. Sometimes moving your eye will allow it to slide back into place. Gently massaging the lid in a downwards motion is also helpful. However, if the lens is torn, or if it slides too far up under the eyelid, it can become extremely difficult to remove without seeing an optometrist or ophthalmologist. If the lens doesn't come out relatively easily it's better to seek help than to irritate your eye or scratch your sclera.
Haha my optometrist taught me to pull my upper lid down, and look up, then release your lid and look down, and try it a couple times and you will loosen it up and bring it down.
That's what I've been doing for 38 years. It works.
Eye drops help if it's stubborn.
Thank you, every time this happens I'm always so afraid I'll never see it again lol

I worked with a pediatric ophthalmologist for many years. On one occasion parents brought in their young daughter who had watched her aunt put in her contact lenses. The little girl found a sequin in the house and put it on her eye like a contact lens. The parents tried to remove it but she wouldn't let them get near her. Her parents brought her to us and while I took their information I casually said "Can I look at your eye". And she said "sure". I could see the sequin with my naked eye so I just took a cotton swab, soaked it with a topical anesthetic, put one drop in her eye(which she let me do)and lightly touched the sequin and out it came!
Thank you for the watery eyes. I will no longer see sequins the same way again lmao
I literally winced when I read "sequin on the eyeball."
“Just come see an eye doctor”. Of course, if it’s after-hours, weekends, or holidays, you’re SOL.

If it's to do with healthcare misconceptions, someone is worried about it. So many people do not understand their own anatomy, how it works, or what can go wrong. Lots are worried about ridiculous things but not real dangers. See it everyday at the hospital.
