 Topic: ContactsPosted: 22 August 2007 at 4:25pm |

Who here wears contacts? I just got them, and man are they a pain in the ass. Just wanted to know how long it took most of you to get comfortable and efficient with putting them in and taking them out. Right now, i think i would have to do it like an hour before I went out-about 20 minutes to get the damn things in, then about 40 minutes for my eyes to look like I didn't smoke a pound of weed. But other than that, i feel like a free man without having to squiont most of the time, and wear glasses when i HAVE to see stuff.

I wear glasses and probably won't go with contacts. I just can't stand touching my eye.

I have them, you just can't close your eye when you put them in, then it will take forever. The kind I have I can never feel, there are times when I completely forgot they were in and I slept with them in, which the next day I had a few popped blood vessels in my eye. If you have a trial pair tell your doctor that you can never get comfortable with them and if there are any others that are more comfortable, that's how I got mine.

I can take them out and put them in really quickly. I've gotten so lazy that I just keep them in basically all the time even in my sleep. Once you have slept with them on a few times, you get used to it and tend to leave them on. I always have healthy eyes.

Wearing glasses since I was a wee lad, tried contacts but don't like poking my eyes. I don't mind glasses, I like the way they look on me.

I've been wearing contacts for 7 years now, and I love them. I didn't get glasses until about 4 years ago, just so I could wear them around the house in the morning when I was too lazy to put contacts in.
When you first get them, they're a pain. It took me probably a week or two to get used to it, and probably a month or two to get completely comfortable. When I first got them, I always woke up about an hour earlier than I had to, just to give myself time to get the contacts in comfortably. Just stick with it, you'll get the hang of it eventually. |

Many people don't realize how sticking a contact on your eye is totally different than sticking your bare finger on your eye. The contact doesn't hurt. When I stick only my finger to my eye, it burns a little, but the contact doesn't hurt unless you get like an eye lash on it.

I have contacts but havn't worn them since sophomore year.
They are hard, so even after wearing them for 2 years they just weren't comfortable for me. Tried putting them in for Prom this past year but they hurt so I just didn't wear them or glasses. |
