What would you say to someone..

That wears one contact lens at a time. For months in one eye, then for months in the other eye.

He gets headaches and cannot figure out why?

He's cheap as all hell too, for those wanting a hint.

Chugging the Hater-aid much?

I've been doing that for over 10 years now .. I have great short vision and bad long vision ... but the contacts compromise my short vision some ... so I'm getting the best of both worlds by only using one at a time. It's just as comfotable as having both in. I learned this once when I lost one and didn't want to put it back in cause it was dirty. After like 2 minutes .. its the same thing.

Plus I hated putting them in and taking them out ... so by keeping one in 4-to-8 weeks .. I might be putting stress on that one eye .. but it will get a long breather once I switch.

Plus .. I'm saving money on buying those stupid ass things all the time - and every year they want to make you get an eye exam .. I buy enough so that I run out about once every six or seven years at my rate.

So...

Pros: Improving vision, less hastle, saving money, avoiding expensive worthless eye exams, and improved health because one eye is always being kept fresh and naked.

Cons: None

I never have had frequent headaches .. and though my eyes are sensative to light sometimes .. especially when I have a headache .. I remember the same thing happening before I ever had lenses.

Wait. . . what? You only wear a contact in one eye at a time? Do you close the eye you're not using?

No.

You guys should try it. If you can get through the first 3 minutes the first time .. you'll see how well your eyes adapt. You won't notice a thing.

It's a lot easier to read this way... for me anyway.

Genius dig. A Grade I-winning smartass remark.

Vol Jack, I just wanted you to know it was appreciated. You must be checking this thread hourly to see what the responses were to it.

I stood up and cheered.

So anyway - back to the original problem, did you cure your headaches?

Last I heard, his right arm is bigger than his left. Or something like that.
