Answers:
The only person that can answer that is the eye doctor who observed the lenses on your eye and wrote the prescription!. It may actually be written on your contact lens prescription, so check that!. If not, I would call the prescribing doctor's office to double check!. The Freshlook website says they are two-week lenses, meaning they are good for 14 wears in about a month's worth of time!. So if you do not wear them everyday, they can last a little longer, but not too much longer!. Like I said before, though, I would double check with the doctor!. Overwear of contacts can lead to very serious problems!.

And do not think you can wear them until they rip or are uncomfortable!. Protein builds up on the lenses and the material degrades as you wear them, so they may be unfit to wear before you can tell!. And wearing a disposable lens for a year!? That is stupid, dangerous, and disgusting!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

It really does depend on how well you take care of them!. I have a pair of monthly contact lenses that I can wear until basically they rip or they fall and I can't find them anymore!. The longest I've work a pair of monthly contact lenses is a year!. My optometrist even said that my contact lenses and eyes look healthy!. So you can wear lenses as long as they're not bothering you (i!.e!. irritating your eyes) and that you're cleaning them properly!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
