What type of contacts are thicker than others?!
Question: I am new to contacts and I seem to rip a lot of the trial pairs. I know about putting them in the case correct, and I have read plenty of articles describing other common problems. My question is are there a thicker brand, or one that is more rip resistant. I was thinking of using daily contacts for a while until I get used to putting them in. Please help me!

Daily contact lenses are actually thinner than most other types of disposables - but at least if you rip them getting them out, it won't matter!
Any silicone hydrogel lens tends to be a bit more rigid than other types of soft disposable contact lenses - O2Optix are fairly tough and highly permeable to oxygen. Give them a shot - I haven't had anyone complain about tearing them.
regular dailywear would be the thicker of the soft lenses- and I prefer those myself. Just going to have to be a bit more gentle when you clean your contacts- short of getting an RX change.....
