[cite]Posted By: StanmoreAddick[/cite]You aren't supposed to wear them everyday as they will restrict the flow of air to your eyes.
So i'm told but optician i'm not..
I tried those ones you wear day and night for 28 days at a time, and they fooked my eyelids up, hence why I now can't wear even daily contacts every day...
Having had a couple of instances of "trying to take out a contact lens that wasn't actually there" when pissed a couple of times, I generally just stick to wearing glasses. I've got a small batch of daily disposables that I keep for when I'm feeling particularly vain though.
i hate wearing glasses for pure vain purposes, but i hate wearing contacts more. Whether its the lens or the solution, something just doesn't agree with my eyes. They never settle properly, move off the pupil frequently, and get terrible headaches in the morning. If i'm out on the lash, the hangover is made to feel three times worse.
Wife had them lasered at Moorfields last year and has said its the best thing she has ever had done, apart from the fact i now look pretty ugly :-(
Its the only way forward....get lasered....you wont regret it - that is unless something goes terribly wrong and you end up blind - but then you still wont need glasses or contacts so you are in a win-win situation!
I wouldn't try to influence anyone's decision, but if anyone is thinking about it, I had this email today:

I'm with ledge. Eyes are the one thing I squimish about. Fortunately don't wear either glasses or contacts but I really should get my eyes checked again. Last time was when I was about 30.
