Answer
Hi Evelyn,
Though your eye doesn't hurt, it sounds like it is infected like you said or your eyelid is infected. You need to see an eye doctor and do not delay. Whether it is contact lens related or not does not matter at this point as far as seeing the doctor. After it is treated, you can revisit your contact lens situation.
