Have you ever had a contact lens get stuck up inside your eyelid? It's pretty obvious and uncomfortable when it happens. So how is this even possible?

video from an eye doctor in Newport Beach, California is going viral after she removed TWENTY-THREE contact lenses from a woman's right eye.

In the video, it only looks like a dozen or so. But it turned out a bunch of them were stuck together. Once she separated them, it was 23.

Her eye doctor thinks she just kept falling asleep with them in. Then she'd forget the next morning and put new ones in.

She even tells her in the video that it might be a world record. But believe it or not, it isn't.

Back in 2017, a doctor in the U.K. was prepping a 67-year-old woman for cataract surgery, and found 17 lenses in one of her eyes . . . then another 10 later on. So the record is 27.
