i got contacts. there coo if u take care of them , they say take em out every night.i never ever do that , i leave em in for hella long and do my own routine , been wearin the contacts in my eyes for about 7 months now. i take em out when i feel like my eyes are irritatted. they do make my eyes dry as fuck though cuz i believe there old now aha i keep eyedrops wit me.
keeping them in for extended periods of time is proven to increase your chances for eye diseases and infections...just lettin u know
i used to have contacts, but they were such a pain in the ass for me...and they just didn't feel right...maybe cuz i have astigmatism...i dunno...maybe the technology has improved since then, it was a few years ago.

On the real though - I had contacts for a minute, but didn't like them for one reason.
Sometimes they slip and go up your eyelid or under your eye. I felt if I ever got in a fight, that shit might get lodged up there and be a bitch to get out. I'd rather throw my glasses to the side and squab than sit trying to get this contact out of my brain while someone's punching me in my ear.

I got em and dont regret it. The cost isnt absurd..100-150 for a years prescription. I got the 1 month lenses and supposed to take em out every night. I usually keep in for the month er so then switch em out. I get horrible headaches once in a while from havin em in so i take em out. Eyes are usually dry in the morning. But there worth it. I do know of a friends mom who never switched em and had problems with the vessels in her eyes being deprived of oxygen for wearin em to long. Wear em close to correct there great.
ok, so I got some contacts... i put them in yesterday and wore them all day. I noticed at about the 5 hour mark my vision started getting a little blurry... by about 8 hours it was really blurry. I figured maybe having them in for long periods of time makes them dirty or something. So after having them in the solution overnight, I put them in today and right away there was a slight blur to my vision. It feels kinda like Im looking through smudged glasses... is this normal? Is it that they're dirty?
There's a few things that can cause it to blur.
What kind of solution did you put them in? Have you tried using rewetting drops when shit gets blurry? There's also some shit you can buy that cleans the protein buildup on them and you put one drop into the the solution each night and it keeps shit pretty clean.

The rewetting drops I use are called Renu MultiPlus made by Bausch & Lomb.... and you're really not supposed to be using anything else like Visine/Clear Eyes/etc unless it's specially made for contacts, but I've used regular Clear Eyes in the past with no problems and it actually helped take the red out of my eyes when they were irritated and after the rewetting drops didn't work. Then again I still wear the old school Acuvue 2 disposables so it could be different for you depending on what brand you wear...I've never heard of Aquify, but you might want to check the instructions and see if you have to use the rub method to clean them. It'll help them last longer and keep the irritation down.
