I think that everyone hates them at first, just stick with them.
I hated the idea of touching my eye now doesnt bother me at all. Takes about 30 seconds to put them both in in the morning leave them in all day take them out about 8/9 at night no problem.
They are worth it in the long run, now i wont go out without them in.

Mine take about 10 mins to settle each time and I have to get someone else to put them in for me or else it takes about 20mins per eye hence why I use extended wear ones so its only once every 30 days. Even with this in mind I still couldn't go back to wearing glasses

Snap. Mines only in my right eye which is the one he tried the contact in, didn't get as far as putting one in the left. I think I will do as suggested and try and stick it if these new ones are uncomfortable. The first ones were there own brand but the others he's getting for me are Johnson & Johnson for the same price Even if they're uncomfey I will make myself go into town and try to do something to take my mind off.

Thanks guys

i wear glasses and its a pain in the arse. i hate havint to faf around when taking my lid on or off. also, foggs up every time i stop

i don't notice them alot when i'm riding accept for "life savers" when i see the frames. Also i too put my glasses on top of my gloves on the seat and they are forever falling on the floor.......


think i will try lenses again, let's hope i ge on better with them this time.

I went for my second contact lense trial on Saturday and I got on with these . They're Johnson & Johnson ones. After I picked up my new scooter from work (I'll post about it when I've taken some photos) and rode it home with the contacts in. How much different? I recommend contacts to anyone who wears glasses and rides bikes.
