PSA: Never nap in your lenses! I used to be super lazy about taking them out and fell asleep in them. This caused a bacterial ulcer on my eye which was insanely painful and has left a permanent scar on my cornea. I am incredibly lucky that it wasn’t a millimetre to the left, otherwise I would be looking at that scar all of the time.
