P250UA5I've done similar, but it was a couple hours after cutting jalapeños that I took my contacts out; only resulted in a slight discomfort.

I just sat and rocked back and forth on the floor for a half hour until it stopped hurting. I'd completely forgotten that I'd made stuffed jalapenos the night before.
