The "irritation" (limit) of contacts on the eyes depends upon how *sensitive* your eyes are to having something covering them and your optical prescription.

The COST depends upon the prescription, the brand and type of lenses you buy (color or clear.)

i wear them everyday. love em they dont hurt or anything. the only thing is learning how to put them in thats all. once you get used to that your set!

When you first start wearing contacts you may have trouble getting them in, and might irritate you a bit, but for the most part they're completely comfortable. Once you get used to them you can't even tell you have them in your eyes except for the obvious improved vision. The only thing is, they'll cost you more than glasses because they don't last forever and you ahve to keep replacing them

Some people will have an easy time getting them in, others will never be able to. Your Optometrist/ophthalmologist will work with you to determine which you are. Over exposure to contacts could aggravate the eye, proper care and hygeine are a must. A 6 pair supply might run you about $100.00

depends what type of contacts you have. they dont hurt to put them in, and they shouldnt irritate your eyes. if they do irritate, take them for a bit and let them soak in solution for 24 hours. cost depends on the type of contacts...i used to have dailies and they cost $27 a box for each eye. each box lasted 3 months. but i just changed to 2-weekly contacts and they cost about half that i believe.

Once you get your prescription from your eyedoctor, you can usually order them online for about $30/3 pairs of disposables. www.lensmart.com

It might be difficult at first to put them in and maybe a little itchy/uncomfortable, but eventually you'll be so used to it, you'll be able to put them in and take them out in the dark.

i was in the same position as you are right now a couple of months ago....
they dont hurt when you put them in, they take only a little getting used to and they dont irritate your eyes. i used to think contacts cost a lot but really they dont....not much to be honest!

go t your opticians, make appointments and they will teach you how to put them in, and ask about the price!
(it took me over a month to put them in but now i can!)
