I have no idea how something like that didn’t happen to me.
I used to wear 30-day disposable contacts for like 3-4 months without ever taking them out. Would just squeeze the cleaning solution directly into my eyes every morning, give them a few heavy blinks, and then rinse with the saline.
At the time I was a lazy teenager / college student and just didn’t really think about it. I was also poor + without insurance so had to make them last. Usually when one would tear, it would be when I was taking them out / putting them in.
I had a mate back in uni who would pour lager from a pint glass straight into his eyes if his daily contacts started to dry up. Somehow nothing bad ever came of it, I have no idea how. Inexplicable behaviour and zero repercussions.
i still do this. can’t afford my glasses and gotta make em stretch, so especially with my type of job, it’s hard to take them out and in all the time. plus, more risk of tearing them when i am, which is soul crushing

I wasn’t expecting that, that is literally insane.
Looking back, definitely lol.

Jesus Christmas. Do you hate yourself?

I used to do this as well… I think I went for 6 months once… not great. I wear glasses now and have chronic dry eye. I got lucky.
