Why do my eyes get red and scratchy when I wear contacts?

I have been wearing Acuvue 2 contacts for about three problem free years now. But starting about 2 months ago I my eyes became extremely red and irritated. At first I thought it was pink eye so I got a prescription for pinkeye drops and treated it with that. So after about two weeks of wearing glasses and using prescription drops I thought my eyes were all better. But now when ever I wear contacts within a couple hours my eyes get extremely red a irritated. I am not sure what I can or should do. I would love to be able to wear contacts again. Any advice or similar stories would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
