O2 optix are the best!. they allow more oxygen through, decreasing your chances of eye irritation or other problems!. and they may be approved for sleep, but its a bad idea in general to do that!.

they come made to last different lengths of time, from (I think) weeklys to 3 months!. note: the longer they are made to last, the much cheaper they are per day, but you also have to make sure to take better care of them!. Also, the longer they last, the much bigger they are, which make them harder to put it!.

Switching from glasses to contacts is one of the best decisions I ever made!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Hey! (My first Y! Answers response) well I've been wearing contacts full time (approx 8-10 hours per day) for a full 2 months now!.

I trailed (each for 2 days) both O2 Optix and Acuvue Oasys during my initial consultations!. I found the Acuvue Oasys to be a lot more comfortable after wearing them for 6-8+ hours!.

After many hours of use, I found that my eyes did not dry out as much wearing the Acuvue Oasys!.

That would be my own personal recommendation!.

But honestly, my eye specialist allowed me to trial the brands I had researched and was undecided about!. If you're unsure of 2 brands, then ask to trial a pair!.

O2 optix are good but were recalled awhile ago and my doctor told me acuvue oasis are way better!. i can sleep with mine in for a month lol and they dont effect my eyes *DO NOT SLEEP WITH THEM IN* because i used to do that with other contacts i now get corneal ulcers!. SO PLEASE LISTEN lol dont sleep with them in!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

i have tried a bunch and my eyes are really sensitive, so im pretty sure these work well on everyone!. acuvue oasis with hyrdaclear!. theyre really moist and comfortable, i never even feel them!!

#1 dont sleep in them, your eyes need to rest and they need the oxygen
#2 always change the solution in your case every time you store them
#3 make sure your fingers are clean before putting them in!!!
#4 once you get them in , look up and down and in all directions before closing your eye, it takes any wrinkles that were in the contact out, and it forms to your eye better
#5 get a good solution!! my favorite is opti-free replenish, it's like the gentlest one out there and it feels really good and refreshing on your eyes!


hope that helps!!! good luck!!!!Www@Answer-Health@Com

I use acuvue hydraclear!. it's more for dry eyes!.!.but the regular acuvue is good too!. it's what i've always used!.

tips!.!.!.umm!.!.just be patient if you find it difficult to take your contact lenses in and out at first!. you should get used to taking care of them in a week or two!. but other than that, contacts are great! you'll love them!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

O2optix!.
best price and best brand!. but ask your eye doctor because different eyes call for different things!.
and don't worry too much!. the first week will be hard!. but then it will become a habit (putting them on)!. just be ready for trying a lot because for me the first few days it took me like 30 mins to get them on! i was upset but then it became easier!.
tip 1) get glasses too!.
or don't throw away the ones you have, because believe me!.!.!.
there are days when contacts don't wanna get on your eyes!.
days when there's no time to put contacts on!. etc!. etc!.
glasses will be there to save you!
tip 2) look for places where you can get a deal!.
i get mine from sams (same brand as i would get anywhere else)
and for buying 2 boxes we get a discount!
tip 3) always have contact solution and your container!.
if possible get a little mini bottle of solution to carry with you!.
and always have contact solution in your locker at school!.
+ an extra pair of contacts/or glasses!. you never know when
youll have an emergency!.
tip 4) don't sleep with them on!!!!!!!!!! even if you do get the O2optix!.
theyre supposed to be sleep-approved but don't do it!!!!!!!
last night i did that and right now i have 2 really irritated eyes!.
thats the reason im even on this category of yahoo answers :)!.
tip 5) don't worry!.
things like this take a little time to get use to and i really
understand your concern because i was scared too!.
problems with contacts do occur, but rarely, so don't let
stories about broken contacts convince you to not get them!.
and trust me: you wont regret getting contacts! theyre the best!

best of luck and yay for contacts!!!Www@Answer-Health@Com

As long as you clean your contacts and maintain them well, you shouldn't have a problem!.
