I wear lenses every day, all day and the only thing to irritate them is barley dust....but thats not really a problem as it gives me an excuse to stay out of the grainstore!

 

I'd try lenses if I were you, they have developed them so well over the last few years. Hardly have to clean mine and last a month before changing.

Laser!

 

I had mine years ago, different meathod. No cutting open a flap as is sone theses days, they just burnt away till the eye was the right shape.

 

Sore for a week!

But now i never look back.

Couldnt handle going back to contacts and glasses. not to mention very quickly it makes financial sense too.

 

 

WOrd of caution it can go wrong, a mate i know had his done and 1 eye turned out with worse vision then it started with. and they did it twice but no joy.

I wear glasses to drive and for distance work. I always wear them in a tree, wouldn't want to throw something onto a groundie!!

I don't wear contacts for the same reason I couldn't have laser eye surgery, I hate things being put in my eyes....

Glasses since I was 10 and I wear contacts now and again. Was going to have the laser surgery, however my doctor told me I could loose some or all of my night vision, So I will pass.

Glasses for driving and distance, other than that I just get on with it a bit blurred.

I have worn glasses since I was 5, I'm 35 now. The worst time is when it has rained then it becomes muggy. They just seem to fog up all the time.

You can wipe the lenses with an anti fogging solution called fog off.

I went to have my eyes lasered in London at the eye hospital but a lad came in in his 30's crying cuz he was in so much pain and itching his eyes asking if there was anything they could give him. I was all set to have it done but bottled it.

I have prescription sun glasses I tend to wear.

I have worn contact lenses for the last eight years, every now and then I get a bit of dust or muck but the lense seems to funtion well and the dust or muck comes out no problem.

 

 

Worn contact lenses (Daily disposables) for the last 17 years... Takes a while to get used to them but they are pretty amazing if expensive (£40 a month).

 

Will get my eyes lazered at some point (one at a time) but in the meantime I actually think these lenses help protect my eyes from all the crap the gets fired into them!
