contacts for the first time

[stunz]

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.

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 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.

keep thinking this thread is going to be about making new contacts for work.

my contacts give me terrible red eye in the fall and spring.  hate it.

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

Wouldn't be able to do this. My eyes are huge pussies. Hell, I'm not even able to put eye drops into my eyes.

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 feces 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.

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?

[stunz]

well, i need them now

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

Maybe you shouldn't go with any unless you actually NEED them.

[stunz]

so i actually got my eyes tested, and now have contacts that fit.  its like the world is in hd now

Yeah Doctors can usually fix things like that
