Contact Lenses

[Mikey]

Does anyone on here wear contact lenses?

What were your first experience with them and if you still wear them how are you with them now?

I got contact lenses because I'm short sighted and I really hate wearing glasses - got them mainly for seeing stuff in college like notes on the screen etc. I have a test run for the next two weeks and I'm kind of struggling to get them in and it takes me ages but taking them out is no problem.

I'm really short sighted so my eyes look really small in glasses now, which is why I started them last month.

The first few days they took ages to put in but now its a doddle. It might help to have someone there to guide where you're putting your finger. Give it a few more days and you'll be a pro :)

When my sister had hers the Optician made her take them out and put them in a few times to make sure she could do it. Maybe you could go to yours if you're having trouble.

I use them nonstop, usually keep dailies in for a good few weeks... after a while it just gets a bit dry so you take em out, but honestly doesnt affect me. theyre lush once you get used to em.

I would like to use them but I cant. The reason why is because my glasses are Varifocals I had an operation a while ago to get my cataracts removed and that's why I have them. I would like Contact lenses because I have curly hair. That may sound stupid but I got bullied in school because I had curly hair and glasses. And that's why I really want contacts :\

Mine are specialist ones as both my eyes are very different, there £80/3months which aint too bad,
at first i grasped it very easy, and my eyes got used to it fairly quickly aswell...
im longsighted...
anyways suppose it varies from person to person

I wear glasses, but I really want to try contact lenses. Some people said it's not comfortable. Im not sure :S

I wear contact lenses and had trouble putting them in when I first started but after a while you get used to it, I just love the fresh feeling you get when you put them in

Omg I had contact lenses once, they hurt when you put them in and they make your eyes water but you can't feel them while you're wearing them. I always used to forget to take them out lmfao.
