I couldn't put lenses in. Had laser surgery and two lenses implanted permanently.
Still getting treated so won't get my prescription until I'm discharged from the clinic.

Wore soft lenses many years ago and fell into the bad habit of not taking them out each night.

Wore them for days and weeks at a time - developed severe conjunctivitis through it.

Was -6 back in the 80's, -7 now.

Boots do daily disposables in Hydrogel, so they're usable even if you suffer from dry eye. Mine are 5 and 3.75. £30/month, but I take mine out and store them overnight in their Hydrogel cartons and use them for a couple of days, which halves the cost. Been doing it for a couple of years now with no ill effects. Don't tell the optician you're doing that though. Just say you only use them 3 or 4 days a week.

I suppose if you need plus 9, then I might be able to forgive the caps lock in the thread title.

On second thoughts, no, I can't.

Personally wouldn't mess around with risking my eye health to save 15 quid a month but each to their own. If you're wanting daily disposables then surely two of the advantages attracting you are you're less likely to get an infection and less hassle as you don't have to store them when you take them out.

Can you people not just look at things the optimum distance from your wonk-eyes? It'll save a lot of hassle.

Have you read about the symfony lenses? They are very expensive at the moment, but I'm sure the cost will come down. (£3900 per eye)

Monthly disposables nowadays -1.5
I buy them for my Mrs online in Czech, Exactly the same as UK and USA but cheaper and free postage,
The UK and USA will not sell me them without her prescription FFS.
