Daily or extended wear?

[calyco]

What type of contacts are you using? Im paying about $60 per pair per year with extended, last I checked daily wear was about twice the price. Also which is the best brand? Thinking about switching to daily, it sucks when my eyes are dry and I only have that one pair to use. I figure with daily I could just open up a new box and use another pair.

two week pair, but i wear them over that time usually unless they dry out for whatever reason or i feel them getting old (or i just remember to change them)

I heard daily's are pretty bad. They're thin, dry out and tear easily. Similar poor reviews for the new Hydraclear. The best ones out so far are acuvue 2 for 2 weeks. Those are the ones I wear and they feel good I guess, depending on your eyes. I have dry eyes so they start to irritate after a while. Most peopel don't feel a thing though.

 

I wear Focus Toric lenses. Best lenses I've tried.

I use 2 month Bausch and Lomb extended wear lenses. And yeah, daily wear lenses suck.

I have annual Cibavisions. They are good.

I use and have always used extended wear. I remove them everyday and have never had any issues.

Custom made SUPER NOVA HydroKones from Innovations in Sight.

$150 a lens & they last me about 3-4 months if I'm lucky.

Same... I switched over from Acuvue 2 to Acuvue 2 Advanced. My eyes don't get dry after 11-12 hours like it did with the old 2's.
