Blind Trip to Vancouver
Sunday, April 03, 2005
I went up to Vancouver, BC this weekend to visit my brother and hang out with some friends. Friday night we went out and got back really late, I went to take my contact lenses out and realized I had forgotten my contact case. I grabbed a glass from the hotel bathroom put some contact solution in followed by my contacts and went to bed.
Saturday morning I got up and went to put my contacts in but the glass I had put them in was empty. I thought about it for a second and then realized where the contacts were: in my stomach. In the middle of the night I had gotten up to get a drink of water. Not thinking anything of it I grabbed the glass next to the bathroom sink, filled it with water, chugged it down and went back to bed. That's right, I drank my contact lenses.
I did not have any backups so I was basically blind to anything more than about 3 feet way the whole weekend. I ended up wearing my friend Andrews glasses, although his prescription is about half of mine, but I was willing to take what I could get.

Oh man, that sucks. The picture, however, is awsome.
Agreed, awesome picture.
As someone who travels a lot, and is blind past ten inches without his contacts or glasses, I feel your pain.
Two tips:
1) It probably won't hurt you to sleep with your contacts in for a single night, if you find yourself in this situation again.
2) If you travel with any frequency, I'd really suggest getting a dedicated toilitries bag and keeping some saliene, a contacts case, and an old pair of glasses in it.
Well, at least organisms in your body will have better vision now. :) That'd be an interesting subject for an art project.
Really od story but I can't over how beautiful that photo is.
yeah, that's funny.
are they nice enough to want to get the investment back?
So didnt the saline solution for the contacts give you the runs? I mean it can really tear you up pretty good.
I did the same thing not long ago. The bathroom had two glasses so I put one contact lens in each glass. My boyfriend woke up in the middle of the night to get a drink of water and inadvertently drank one of my contact lens.
Like Matt, I can't see further than ten inches. I didn't have my glasses at the time, so I was thankful that I had at least the one contact lens to get me home. Otherwise, I don't think I would've made it out of the hotel, let alone all the way home.
BTW, I have slept with my contact lens in a couple of times before. The initial half an hour is hellish because your eyes get rather dry, but if you keep on blinking it should pass. (Though, there was that time when one of my contact lens had gone walkabouts in my eye, but that's a story to tell another time.)
That's an incredible photo! I gotta get me a nicer camera.
My brother did a similar thing when we were kids. I had just lost a baby tooth and in our house the tooth fairy came when you put the tooth in a glass of water and left it on the kitchen table. In the morning you would find a coin in the glass of water instead. However, my parents woke me up in the morning, telling me that the tooth fairy couldn't find my tooth the night before! My brother had asked mum for a glass of water and when she didn't bring one to his room he found one on the kitchen table!
One suspects that since they are basically plastic, you could "retrieve" them in about 18-24 hours.
That photo would make one awesome desktop background ;) I hope you don't mind sharing it with a few people
One time I crashed at a friend's house and also didn't have my contact lens case. And they had no saline solution. So, I put some purified water in two glasses and put a contact in each glass (man...so dumb). The next morning, my contacts had actually GROWN about three times their normal size. It was like a creepy twilight zone thing. I was still kind of sleepy and I was thinking, "We're they always this big? I don't remember that."
I'm also quite blind so my dad had to bring me my glasses. It sucked at the time, but now I think it's kind of cool to know that contacts expand in regular water. Try it sometime with an old pair. It reminds me of those little tablet things that expand to be sponges shaped like dinosaurs and stuff. Cool.
Mike, I know you're busy, but I'd love to have a desktop-sized version of that photo.
If people tease you about swallowing your contacts, just tell them you were "trying to clarify your inner eye." That'll shut 'em up.
Mike...
What camera was the photo taken with?
Please don't try to retrieve them. That idea made me wanna just puke.
Love the story and the comments. I am blind too and share your pain. But I did have a good laugh.
Although I've never swallowedmy contacts, I have thrown them away, swept them on the floor, and other stuff of the liking. I have to say its a creative way to lose them though.
Well! Funny! At least you had your friend's glasses ;) anyway.. i really like the picture!!
