Just got them last month. Their alright, its a lot easier to just throw on some glasses though. When I burn, my vision gets blurry sometimes. I slept in them, and woke up to fog like vision, and eye boogers. $90 for about a 3-4 months supply.

You know what else I noticed is that these contacts work great in the daytime, however they seem blurry at night or in artificial light... headlights and streetlamps have that hazy glare to them.

Yup. You'll notice a lotta shit like that. I got stigmatism too, so they don't even completely work when it's a brand new script. (glasses correct stigmatism but not contacts). my glasses from about 3 years ago are clearer than my contacts, because of the stigmatism. also i frequently notice it getting blurry and clear again. enserio is right, I always worry about a fight or sleeping and losing it in my eye socket or some shit. lol.

I was pissed because of all these downsides I noticed the first time I got contacts. Plus I never got the hang of taking em in and out. The one of the laziest cats I know got contacts and so I was like, shit I can do it.

Then I got em again and I've had em ever since. You get used to taking them in and out. I take em every night. I've never been caught having to sleep somewhere and not being able to take them out. Sometimes I have chosen to keep them in while I sleep. They feel a little dry in the morning, it's never been that bad. Sometimes I'll put eyedrops in, that kinda helps.

Yeah there's a general discomfort wearing contacts. They get dry all the time, I feel so much bettter when I take off my contacts at night. On Fridays when I have full days (wake up at 7 to go to school, might go to a party or some shit until 1-5am), they feel annoying, my eyes get red (yes sober) and dry, feels like something's in your eye. Eyedrops only seem to help temporarily, and I don't think you're supposed to rely on all-purpose eyedrops to keep your eyes feelin good.

For me, the good outweighs the bad, but yeah I got pissed at all the negative sides of contacts that I wasn't expecting, and I even went back to glasses like I said, but I reconsidered. Also I think I look better without glasses.

I saw some shit about every kinda contact solution got pulled from the market except optifree. I dunno why though.
Click to expand...
i forget the name of the solution but it was given fools some kind of an eye fungus shit...

the reason your contacts get blurry after a while is because A) they are drying out, or B) something is in em.. both can be solved with rewetting eyedrops.

I have a solution called Aquify. Whats a brand of rewetting drops I could use? Also, is there certian drops Im not supposed to use with contacts in my eyes?
Click to expand...
YES, VISINE is not useable when u have contacts,
So if u used them w/contacts,
u should throw those away and put a new pair in
ur new drops for after u smoke is the rewetting drops
they were talkin bout before.....

I think I may have used visine before in my eyes, maybe once. I have all purpose walgreens eye drops. I bought it once two years ago and I'm still using it. It's tiny too, fits in your pocket. I've just been slowly using it up. Last time I checked, they didn't have any more there.

yup, I have astigmatism, one eye worse than the other... im ready to just go Stevie Wonder and fuck all these contacts and eyeglasses
Click to expand...
LOL i know how you feel. thats how I felt when I first thought about it.

stigmatism sucks, luckily I don't have it too bad, but it's still noticeable. I don't really mind. I still rather wear contacts than glasses. I don't think I'll ever get lasik though.

Did you ever get that Laser Eye Surgery Melo? I got astigmatism as well and have been wearing glasses for 4 years.... I've been thinking about Lasik lately since I hate wearing glasses and when taking them off to play sports, I sometime get blurry vision. Wore contacts a few times but never liked taking off and on since I'm very sensitive with my eyes and takes me a while to insert them!

No I didnt... I just stuck with the contact lenes and now its like second nature to me. Yea they get blurry sometimes, but not as bad as when I first had them. As a whole I've gotten used to them and will probably continue to use them for as long as I could.

if u talkin bout dank, hell yea. My eyes get hella dry when I burn one with contacts in. I'm talkin like visine every 10 minutes dry.

I got contacts, and shit's koo. I get em in Korea, so a lil bit cheaper than America, and they last about 3 months, take em out every night and clean em and shiet.
