hey all, I know this might sound like a silly problem but I have one of my contact lenses stuck in my eye. they're daily lenses so I really need to get it sorted as it's been 2 days and several hours of painful attempts to get it out already.

could anyone translate (preferably in Hangul)

" Please can you help me, my contact lens is stuck in my right eye, I have tried for hours to take it out but to no avail. My eye is now very sore. i would be very grateful for your help."

Thanks so much

Not perfect but this is a basic translation -

저를 도우십시오. 나의 콘택트 렌즈는 나의 눈에서 찔린다. 나의 눈은 아주 고통스럽다. 당신을 감사하십시오.

If you go to a hospital or doctor and say "contact lens" and point to your eye, they'll likely know what's wrong and help you. Bring along the translation just in case though. Good luck!

I've been told that most pharmacists speak english (I generally only get a couple things there and don't need to have long conversations with them so I haven't tested it) and if you're in seoul there are several hospitals that have English clinics.
