What would you say to someone..

I know I tell you this on a nearly daily basis, but I think you really might be retarded.

If I put a top 10 retarded things you've done in just the last two months thread here, frankly, people wouldn't believe me!

Oy.

Bend over and use your good eye!!!

You might want to take out your lens a little more than every 3 - 4 months! The protein deposits can cause this:

I'm afraid you will need to translate that Sighty. Or maybe Doc can (ICU, not Roller).

Basically, blisters under the eyelid with puss coming out of the eye.

If it doesn't make him less pretty, I'm not sure he'll think that matters.

I've been wearing them for about 12 years and just had the mandatory exam last Dec when I had to buy more ... my vision actually improved slightly from my last eye exam in like '02 or '03.

There is no chance I could ever get that because one eye is always naked for an extended peroid ... and with the other one .. six to eight weeks go by before I remove it.. and 95% of the time I remove from boredom and not because of the old "when in doubt take it out" rule of thumb once they get slightly uncomfortable.

I've tried putting both in at the same time before because I thought it might help me when I played baseball ... but it was very uncomfotable having both in... and it is so much harder to read.

More importantly, why hasn't this thread been moved to Eso?

For that 6 or 8 weeks, do you at least take it out to clean it at night?

Be careful that you don't end up cross-eyed. I know that kids who have much better vision in one eye sometimes end up cross-eyed because they depend so much on the "good" eye that the "bad" eye becomes lazy. Often an opthamologist will patch the good eye to correct matters.

My opthamologist has a bias against contacts. I've been wearing extended wear contacts for 20+ years and the only problem I've had with them was a bout with GPC. I wear them for a week straight, including sleeping in them, remove them, and insert new ones. He is horrified by this, and also can't understand how I can wear the ones I do since he claims I have an astigmatism. Glasses are out of the question since my vision is so bad (-9 power for my contacts). There is not much he can do, so he always gives me his anti-contacts lecture when I see him. It is probably from some CYA text he picked up at a medical conference on how to avoid getting sued.
