Answers:
I use Accuvue lenses!. They are great and I usually can't feel them at all!.
I have to take mine off when I go to sleep because they are not extended wear!.
I play basketball, jog and do gardening in them (and about everything but swim)!. I even go to the beach with them on - but not in the water!.
Your eye doctor will determine what kind of lenses you need, and will teach you to put them in, and how to care for them!.
I've been to many doctors to get them (been wearing them for about 20 years)!. The best and cheapest place to go is Sears, but your parents will determine that!
Have fun with them! They're great!Www@Answer-Health@Com

I wear contacts, and I love them!
1) No they don't, unless you accidentally scratch your eye, or your contacts ripped or dirty!. But that doesn't happen if your careful!.

2) some contacts are breathable, and you CAN sleep in those, but some (like mine) aren't!. But they probably aren't bad if you accidentally fall asleep for a little while!.

3)Yes you can!. Sometimes they fall out, but that's never happened to me!. But you should be able to!. I think that's why they made them, so that you can do more stuff without having to wear glasses!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

They don't hurt but you do have to get used to sticking things in your eyes!.
Some are extended wear, you wear them for like 30 days straight!. Day and night!. Some you take out nightly and every couple of weeks you dispose of them!. Ask your Dr!. which is right for you!.
Once they are in you can do almost everything except swim!. Water in your eyes could wash the lenses out!. Good luck and they beat glasses any day!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Hey
Contacts dont hurt to put in your eye, unless you put them into low as in the very red part on the bottom of your eye!. Other than that they are very esay to put in!. Some contacts can be worn 24 hours a day, but it depends on what your optomitrist gives you!. YOu certainly can use them for outdoors activitys it is one of the biggest plus's of contacts except for swimming!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

1) No it does not! I use to think that!
2) Your suppose to take them off when you go to sllep and put them in contact solution until u awake the next morning so they'll be clean!. Sometimes I sleep in them when I'm really tired it doesn't bother anything!
3)yes you can use them for whatever! lol

PS: I hoped I helped because I have contacts myself my color is honey!Www@Answer-Health@Com

1!. No!. Soft contacts are very comfortable
