Today, I went to get a facial. I forgot my contact case so I put them into paper cup. My beautician thought it was leftover water from someone else, and threw my only pair of vision aid away. I scuttled home half blind. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I opened my new contact lenses for the first time in a month and accidentally dropped one, only to watch it disappear helplessly down the drain. Give a name to the situation. FML
Today, I got into the shower with my glasses on by mistake. I spent 5 minutes convinced that the fog in my vision was me going blind. FML
Today, I was using the restroom at work when my glasses slipped off my face and landed right in the toilet. FML
Today, after an extremely hard day at work, I took a hot shower to wind down a little bit. I accidentally splashed a painful amount of hot water and shampoo in my eyes. My left contact is now stuck to my eyeball. FML
Today, I woke up hungover and thirsty, I found a glass of water next to the sink, filled it up with more water, chugged it and went back to bed. I woke up an hour later to my best friend telling me she thought she lost her contacts. They were in a glass next to the sink. I ate her contacts. FML
Today, I went to go soak my dentures because I fell asleep wearing them last night, only to find that my boyfriend threw away the container they were in, thinking it was trash. FML
Today, I wore a pair of glasses with no lenses because I thought I'd look smarter. I ended up poking myself in the eye several times, leaving it swollen. So much for making me look smarter. FML
Today, I bought an eye mask to help me sleep during the day, as I work night shifts. Upon waking up after my first time using it, I forgot I was wearing it and thought I had gone blind, causing me to fall out of the bed and split my head open on my bedside table. FML
Today, I brought home my 3D glasses after a movie. I had a laugh about it until I realized that I put my $100 sunglasses in the recycle box outside of the theatre instead. FML
Today, I inadvertently gave passers by the middle finger as I tried to stop my glasses from sliding off my face. FML

aw man that sucks. I'm a guy so I don't really know but did you have to take out your contacts to get a facial ?

it's okay, I'm a girl and I don't know why either. it doesn't seem like contacts would get in the way any more than your eyes would get in the way.

Unless putting tea bags or cucumber or whatever one your eyes does something to your eyeball which i doubt... Maybe it is just more comfortable

I don't understand either. I wear contacts and I've had facials done before and I never had to take my contacts off.

why did you take them out for a facial? I've never taken mine out for one.

If you need to take out your contacts for a facial, I think you got the wrong kind of facial. Did you get some in your eyes?

That sucks... I hate it when people throw stuff tar could be someone's away. If the cup was on the ground, that'd be one thing, but it was near you on the counter.

You're lucky. Most women get blinded during a facial because of something IN their eye.

So you keep contact solution with you, but not your case? Because if you put your contacts in plain water, I figure they'd be ruined as it is.

29- no, contacts are fine in just water for a short period of time. I've had to do that a couple times... but not without telling anyone it wasn't just water lol

actually, leaving them in water, even just barely rinsing them in water can cause you to get a parasite- an amoeba that can eat through your eye and leave you blind. just do some research on acanthamoeba. that's why you're told to keep contacts completely clean using only contact solutions, changing them regularly, not swimming in them and never using tap-water on them.
