Yesterday i went to the opticians and asked to try disposable lenses. I've been wearing hard gas permeables since i was 16 and they are doing my head in! For the last year i can't wear them for more than an hour or so before they cloud over. They have gradually been getting worse for the last few years. Also i am sick to death of cleaning, rinsing and soaking then every night. The optician figured out my tears are weird which is making my lenses cloudy and said this shouldn't happen with soft lenses.
He put some disposables in my eyes yesterday and i wore them home and for the rest of the afternoon and evening. No cloudiness! How exciting! So today is the real test. I'm going to wear them for work. I've been given 5 free pairs to try and have an appointment to go back and see how they are suiting my eyes before i buy any. They are way bigger than my hard lenses and you have to pinch them off your eye to get them out which is a bit strange. It took me a few go's to get them out last night but i reckon it'll just take practice.
I feel like blogging about this because contact lenses are such a major part of my life and i've been miserable for ages because i can't see properly and have to wear glasses. Most days when i wear my glasses i feel like a right frump! They are nice ones but i just love contacts, eye make-up looks so much better when it's not behind glass! So i'm crossing my fingers and hoping today i can see clearly and comfortably all day long. I'll be gutted if these ones cloud over. In fact i think i'll be so mad i'll probably rip my eyeballs right out of my head. Haha.

I had gas permeable lenses when I was 16 and I hated them. They really hurt my eyes but the optician said I had to have them because my eyes are the shape of rugby balls (I'm so short sighted it's ridiculous!).
I went out clubbing with them n for the first time and some stupid bint poked me in the eye on the dance floor. I got five people on all fours looking for them but no joy. I had to walk around with one hand over one eye and looked ridiculous lol.
I wear glasses now but I'm used to them. And they make me look smarter than I really am

I once lost a lense in a glam rocker's hairdo. I walked into his hair with my eyes open and it popped right out. I never found it. Those lenses used to pop out really easy so over the years i have lost quite a few which is expensive!
I'm loving these disposable ones, they have been perfect all day long. Maybe you should give them a go. So comfy!!

I've always had the soft ones - I don't mind my glasses but then in my head I'm doing a sexy librarian look, lol.
