CPAP and Overnight Contacts: Blurry Vision

Does anyone use a CPAP and have overnight contact lenses? I started using a CPAP a few days ago, and my overnight contacts seem to not be working as well when I use the CPAP? I keep waking up with really blurry vision.

      @samtheant I use a humidifier and also use eyedrops before I go to sleep ( not medicated ones , just lubricating ones )

      yes, it does. Also, I'm using a nasal mask so it doesn't really make sense why it would do that. Maybe I'll try turning the humidity up

      Sounds like your contacts are drying out overnight. Do your CPAP have a humidifier chamber where you pour distilled water in?
