I'm sure a lot of you wear contacts here. I haven't worn contacts in 3 years and I want to go back now. I think I had Acuvue2 and B+L 2 week lenses. They weren't all that comfortable.

Can anyone recommend the most comfortable brand and type? I don't care about durability, longetivity, etc.. Be it day/night use or monthlies.... only COMFORT matters.

So, any suggestions?

I wear Biomedics 38, they're super thin, 2 wk contact lenses, I love them, would recommend them. I tried a whole bunch of different brands because they all felt thick, I swear I could feel the edges when I blinked - I had a cool eye doc who let me test drive a few free pairs.

well that depends if you have an astigmatism or not.

if not you can go acuvue or biomedics

if you do

i love my preference toric by cooper vision ( they are changed every 3 months and less expensive too)

you should really talk to an eye doctor. someone might recommend acuvue but they might not fit your eyes, and so on.

focus dailies are awesome - you never clean them so they don't get coated in chemicals

I have the Biomedics as well, monthlies and I am new to contacts by about 1.5 months. They are very comfortable.
