Contact Lenses

[GooeyToast]

Yeah, I've got some.

Mine are very comfortable and soft. I hardly notice them.

Only problem is, i have to try not to rub my eye and I can't just take them off whenever whereever I want.

So who here wears/enjoys them?


P.S.: Can you wear them in water?

I have contacts, I like them very much. I can't get water in mine or else they burn my eyes. My friend put her contacts in water and they turned green, so I don't think you can.

I don't wear them, 'cause I think the idea of weging a piece of glass in your eye seems a little painful. It isn't supposed to be, I know, but I'd probably mess it up... I didn't actually add anything to this topic , did I? Sorry.

I have some that makes my eyes green (!) but I don't really need them. Just to look go... better than I already do.

They're not actually glass. I thought they were glass too, before I actually got one. They're very flexible and watery.

Well, you can get some adapted for water use. You can pratically get some to any occasion.

I wear contacts, and have been for almost 8 years. They're a thin piece of plastic, I usually can barely feel them, and I got used to them very quickly. I now wear Day and Night contacts, it's a relatively new kind you can leave in your eye for a month without taking them out once. They are wonderful, and until like two or three days before I have to take them out I can't even feel them, and I almost never rewet them until then either. Also, I don't have peripheral vision when I wear my glasses, but I do when I wear my contacts.

I wear them. They are so much better than glasses IMO although I still wear them from time to time. Mine are daily disposables so I have to take them out after 12 hours and I can't get them wet. They burn.

I want ones you can wear all the time even when sleeping. I think you can get them now...you just have to take them out once a month or something.

Mind you, laser eye surgery sounds good....

I think I need to get a some of the abovementioned contacts. I have the one day ones as my eyesight isn't that bad but when I trying to spot a hottie on a night out I would rather be wearing my contacts than my glasses therefore I have them.
Though I always get drunk and fall asleep in them and then wake up with my eyes all blurred from the contact and some sort of eye juice. It is lovely.

I've had contacts for three 1/2 years. I wear them much longer than I should. I get a year supply at a time, and I'm only on my second year's supply.

I have an astigmatism, so contacts + me = sux. Even the new Acuvue Advanced, which are supposed to be great for people with astigmatism, sux.

[Leeza]

I never ever thought that I would want contacts because I didn't think that I could ever put something in my eyes, but I've changed my mind and will be getting some eventually. Glasses can be a pain.

[kikimm]

I don't have any yet (or glasses) but I'm pretty sure I'll have to get them eventually, as my eyesight isn't exactly perfect now. I'm a little nervous, as I don't like putting things near or on my eyes. Oh well.

[Mitch]

I don't really like wearing contacts, they get real sore after a few hours but If I go out of to someones house I wear them because I don't look to good with glasses...

And then you complain after a mere nine hours of reading.

I don't have or need contacts.
