What Causes Redness In Eyes With Burning Sensation And Watering?

I slept in my contacts on accident and removed them last night. This morning when I woke up my eyes were bright red, they ve burned all day and are incredibly watery. Also when I woke up they were both pretty gunky. While it does fit the symptoms of conjunctivitis, could it just be severe irritation from dried out eyes?
