you get used to them very quickly. Far better than having to have glasses on your face imo.

First day I ever wore contacts people probably thought I was a tweaker or something.  They felt weird so I was blinking at least every 2 seconds.  You will get used to them pretty quickly.

Or you could always revisit the LASIK thread from a while back.

i dont need glasses.  they look so hottt.  it allows me to see through people's souls.  picture is similar lenses, although her eyes aren't completely bloodshot from the pain i have put my eyes through.

is there a way to tell which way is up?  i can't tell with mine, when they are in either direction, the edges have the same angles.  when i squeeze them, i can't tell a difference in how they bend.  i've gotten them in my eyes successfully three times, and it has burned every time.

I feel so bad for all the people who post here.  Natural selection really needs to weed out some of the bad gene pool. 

Just a bunch of blind, alcoholic, out of shape, fatties.

There's no excuse for not being able to see correctly.  It's just plain laziness.  I put my eyes through 20 min of rigorous exercise each morning and I have 20/15 vision.

Astigmatism in one of my eyes.  Have to have a special contact.  It is much thicker than my other eye.  The eye without the astigmatism gets to the point where I don't feel the contact.  The eye with it, I constantly feel it.   

Hate glasses and keep thinking that I will convert to contacts.  Convinced both suck.

Getting the surgery in the next year or two.

don't know about your contacts, but mine have a 123 etched into them. if the 123 is viewed correctly, then the contact is correct.

THIS!!  But it sounds like stunz just has cheap non-prescription contacts, so they might not have that. 

FWI worth I've had contacts since 6th grade and I love the crap out of them.  Only thing is I can't wear them for 20 hours straight anymore.

I've worn them since like 5th grade and I still wear mine 24/7, for a month at a time.  Every single eye doc I've been to says the same things-  Absolutely no damage to my eyes, perfectly healthy eyes, wouldn't even be able to tell I wore contacts, etc.   Guess I'm like Wolverine when it comes to contacts.

My eyes dry out after a full day wearing them.  But I smell extremely elite, so it's ok.  Give and take ya know?

Mine are kinda dry in the mornings, sometimes.  I throw a couple drops in 'em and I'm good to go.

it's all about getting the lashes out of the way.  got it down now.  i've had them on for 4 hours now, starting to feel dry some.  i think they are brand name, but they were only like $13.  everything is pretty blurry, especially at night, which isn't exactly good.  but if my vision gets worse and i actually need contacts, at least i will be used to them.

This is like "The Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!)'s Guide To Proper Contact Placement".   

Figuring out if your contact is right is like figuring out if your hand is on fire.  Pretty easy stuff.

Have also worn contacts since 5th grade. Well over a decade. Acuvue (sp?) Is the way to go. Also u should have your dr recommend a good eye drop for when they dry out

I used to be able to do this in college. would wear the same pair constantly for like 3 months. Shortly after graaduation, I had to stop. maybe something in the manhattan water supply that makes eyes more accustomed to long term contact wear.

i wore them out last wednesday.  by the end of the night, everything outside 5 feet was extremely blurry.  my eyes still feel mumped, and i think my vision is worse now.  i think i'll go with blue next time.

So it was the color that mumped up your eyes?  Makes perfect sense.

How 'bout you stop being such a douche and not wear colored contacts, considering the fact that you don't need corrective lenses.  What, were your fake eyeglasses broken?
