No. Contacts are unnoticeable from far distance, but look at your eyes in the mirror and you can see the edges of them. |

It could shift up to the roof, but not get lost. I've heard that if you get tear a little, it'll shift back in place. If this happens, then you'll probably want to put water in your eye? But it's really rare for it to get lost. |

no, if you look in a mirror and pull your lower lid down you'll see that its basically sealed, its the same way under the top eyelid. if you loose a contact its probably under one of your lids and you can get it out and if its not under your lid then dont freak out it just fell out of your eye. |

There is a membrane inside your eye called your conjunctiva, and is anchored onto your sclerea (the white part of your eye). This membrane stops anything going up behind your eyeball.
It can feel like a contact lens is behind your eye but its actually up underneath your eyelid. If a contact lens gets underneath your upper lid it can be a bit uncomfortable, but normally you can get it out yourself. If you cant, your optician can easily whip it out, or if they are closed your local A&E department can get it out in a jiffy! |

it is possible to lose your contact lense inside your eye. if you do where contact lenses be careful because if you do lose it it can be very painful. |

Not really, but it is possible for it to slip far to an extreme side of an eye where you can't get it out. If this happens though, the best thing to do is take a nap or keep your eyes closed for an extended period of time. Eventually the contact will slip back to the front of the eye. |

Yes it is possible.
"A rigid contact lens can dislocate from the cornea and settle into the upper fornix. Eventually, the lens may erode through the conjunctiva and enter the soft tissues of the lid where it can remain relatively asymptomatic. Alternatively, the tissues around the contact lens can become irritated and inflamed producing a sterile abscess. The lens foreign body can incite the formulation of granulation tissue around the lens, encapsulating it in a cystlike structure." |

no. there is a natural membrane in your eye that separates the inside from the outside. this could never, EVER happen. good luck |

There's a natural barrier of sorts that makes it very impossible for the lens to get stuck there. However, if the lens is soft it could sometimes get folded and create the illusion that it is gone. Extracting it is pretty easy. |

Nope. It might get stuck under the lid slightly but it can always be gotten out. |

NO. Whatever you've heard from other people simply isn't true. It's physically impossible for the lens to roll into the back of your eye (aka losing the lens in your eye). The most it can move "out-of-bounds" is on the top of your eye.
If you're still unsure, visit your optometrist and ask questions! Contacts are designed to cover the area it's supposed to, and moving so far away from its designated area is difficult (if not impossible). Make sure not to SLEEP in your contacts, as that may be the cause of the "moving contacts". Good luck ~ |

I don't know.... I've had lenses go way back off center, on the white part. Then it's hard to find them. You could need help getting them when they do that. I had one lense tear apart, tear in two. I saw the one part and got it. Went to a doctor, he could not find the other part in my eye. Went to another doctor, he could not find the other part either. Don't know where it went????? Maybe stuck to hand and then came off somewhere. Anyway, good luck with your lenses. |

I have contacts too, and you can't lose it because it would have to come out eventually, but it can move back under your eyelid and kind of get stuck in the corners far enough that it can't be seen when you open your eye. That's happened to me a couple times, and it hurts a little but you just have to hold your eye open and try to get it out. If it's so far back you can't get to it, you need to go to the doctor and have them remove it there. Don't worry though, this doesn't happen very often and you can usually get it out yourself. |

umm no. i don't think so cause it's never happened to anyone that i know that wears them, including me

No, it's a lie that your contact can get stuck behind your eye. |
|
(identity unknown)
 |
no. It may move around if you are not careful though |

Very rarely, it can shift upwards toward the roof of your eye, but you should be able to get it, and it'll never get lost in you eye. |
