I doubt I will get them because my eye sight is really bad, since I have an astingmatism ! :( , It's August 23rd and I am going back to school on Septemeber 2nd, I think I will probably have to wait till I am 15 or 18 :( WHICH SUCKS !! Please pray for me , I am really scared to hear the doctor say NO , :(

GUESTBLAKET I have worn contact lenses ever since my freshmen year in high school and now im in my second year of college. I wanted them because I played baseball and it was hard to play catcher behind the plate with glasses on especially with the lights glarring off the glass lense. I have worn my contact for up to a week straight and even slept in them, i have only had one eye infection since then. But sometimes when i take my contacts out my eye has to get used to the fact that there is no contact lense and its kinda annoying. It bothers me a lil pain but not a hurting like crazy pain. Hope this helps you!

GUEST81693 I use contacts and alternate them with my glasses, just to allow my eyes to breathe and get the air in more. Wearing contact lens is great but sometimes it get uncomfortable, like something is stuck but there is nothing there, I have checked. I feel like rubbing my eyes because it annoys me so much. That's my only problem with it.

GUEST23313 hi i would be so glad if any one give me some advice.
i had my contacts lense yesterday. I tried to take out the contact lens from both my eyes, Only was able to take out from the left, and i was almost crying for not being able to take it out from the right. I tried taking it out for almost two hours, putting solution both in my eyes and on my tip of the right index finger to make it easy for removal. MY right eye was so reddish and sore, i finally gave up taking it out from the right eye and slept having one eye with and the other without the lens.
Is it bad to wear them when you sleep?
is it okay to wear them and shower with the eyes closed?
i don't feel like taking it out with my hand,so can i take them out my immersing my eyes into a container full of water?
can i wear them continuous by putting two drops of solution before you sleep and not taking them out until they expire?

Guest, you can buy contacts that you can sleep with. Normal lenses need to be taken out to let the eye breath. You are not supposed to fly with them in either but I do.
The action of blinking during the day lubricates the eye.
You may as you have suggested be able to remove the lenses by immersing your head but you may loose the lens.
If you are still unable to remove the lens you should seek help as it can course long term damage
The Optometrist should have told you how to put them in and remove them safely. Sounds like he didn’t.

GUEST5251 Never wear contact lens. My job requires me to use the computer everyday. Wearing contact lens definitely makes me feel uncomfortable. I prefer to wear glasses.

i guess they are because my mom is always telling me not to buy them any more but i still do.
she always tells me that they are bad because i can get an infection and i am scared to get an infection but i still wear them because i dont want to be going to school with them stupid glasses people will think im more ugily than i am and some people won't even talk to me
so i still wear them going on with the future
