One doctor was left speechless when she discovered a patient had a bunch of disposable contact lenses lodged in her right eye – specifically underneath her eyelid!

No joke! On Thursday, Dr. Katerina Kurteeca, an ophthalmologist with California Eye Associates in Newport Beach, California, told Today a woman in her 70s came to her office back on September 12 complaining she felt “something in her eye” and noticed some mucus in the area.

She began checking to see if she had a corneal ulcer or conjunctivitis. After ruling out those conditions, Katerina moved on to look for an eyelash, mascara, pet hair, or any object that could irritate her eye.

However, she couldn’t find any items near the woman’s right cornea – except for some mucus discharge. Related: Bachelor In Paradise Star Hasn’t Walked In FOUR MONTHS Since Getting Injured On Show!
