I can't feel them at all now, you won't either after the first week.

I've slept in mine a few times now when i've been to drunk to take them out, not a big problem if it's just occasionally, just don't do it all the time

Never heard of that happening, your eye sits right next to the inside skin so there is no room for them to get back there

Ive scratched my eye before it just means you can't wear contacts for a few days. It heals up fine but it can leave scars
