Answers:
I wore RGP lenses for about five years (due to my high astigmatism)!. I started wearing them before they made soft lenses with my prescription!. I had to stop wearing them b/c my eyes were too dry and the lenses were uncomfortable!. In the last year or so I've occasionally worn soft lenses but my vision was definitely not as precise as it was with RGPs or my glasses!. My mom has worn RGPs for years- probably more than 30 years without any problems!. The large majority of people I know wear soft lenses!. You should ask your doctor why they think RGPs are best!. I know they make "trial" lenses for soft contacts- maybe you could try a pair of those first and then decide if you should go w RGPs!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
