Lost... and found

I once made the mistake of not realising my contact lens had fallen out and spent half an hour trying to remove what was actually my cornea (not recommended!) So yesterday after a couple of moments of gentle prodding, I decided to assume that my lens must have fallen out without me realising and the irritation in my eye was purely due to irritation from me prodding it. I think it must have got wedged under my eyelid – finally managed to find and remove it this morning covered in gunk. Think I shall stick to glasses for a few days...
