I know what you mean... I have never been able to forget I'm wearing contacts either, in either eye - and I have astigmatism in both, so that might in fact have something to do with it. Like you said, it doesn't hurt or anything, I can just feel "something is on my eye" all the time, which kind of makes me want to rub it, or just close my eyes and let the moisture build up.

Two things:

Are you wearing toric lenses? I think that's what they're called anyway - there are lenses specifically for people with astigmatism, that are sort of weighted or something so they will correct the astigmatism too, and if they start to rotate out of position, blinking puts them back in the proper orientation. I can't say they'd help with feeling the lenses, since it's what I wear and I still feel them, but it might be why you're getting blurriness.

Also, eyedrops! I guess there are some that you are absolutely not supposed to use when you're wearing contacts (or maybe just certain types of contacts), and some that you can. I asked my eye doctor when I started wearing them and mentioned having some dryness. I sort of got used to it over time and haven't bothered using them for ages, so I don't even remember what kind I was using... but since it might be dependent on the type of contact you're wearing, you'd probably want to ask the optometrist who gave you the contacts (or just call their front desk - I think it was actually the secretary who tipped me off about the eyedrops in my case).

I do not wear toric lenses! And I am going to buy a bottle of eyedrops tomorrow (or use my cleansing solution).

Ahhhh hahah. I can't use my cleansing solution, because I am extremely sensitive to chemicals and have to use this special stuff that has a special case which causes a chemical reaction to make the fluid bubble, and after 6-8 hours it's finished and stabilizes as saline. It's really cool, but also apparently REALLY not meant to go in the eyes until after the chemical reaction is finished. Warnings all over the box. It never occurred to me that most people actually can get their cleansing solution in their eyes...
