Best contact lens' for a first timer?

[TripleAAA]

I've been wearing glasses since 2 years old and about 10 years ago I tried contacts for a day, but found them very uncomfortable.

I also have been looking into Lasik and think I'm gonna hold off on it for a few more years until the technology improves moreso.

Anyways, can anyone recommend a good contact that is comfortable? My eyes are pretty sensitive so I know it's going to take a lot of practice getting them in and out each day.

Thanks

ask your eye doctor and go with what they recommend for your eyes.

well, at first i used soft daily contacts as they are very easy for the eye to get used to. the only hard part is learning how to control the eye's reflex to close. i now use monthly contacts. they are cheaper but more of a hassale.

Your optomitrist will recommend something better for you than ATOT will ever tell you.

That said, go with ones that you change more often. Although a bit harder to handle because they're thinner, it's more insurance if you rip them from getting used to handling them. It got expensive when I was ripping 1-year lenses at $100/pop.

Focus Dailies are too hard to remove. Acuvue 1-day are much easier.

Night & Day...the new silicon lenses. You can leave them in all month even while you sleep. They're very comfortable.
