Daily disposable contact lenses are inexpensive and can't really be cleaned. So if you try to clean a daily disposable contact lens, you are actually breaking it down, not making it last longer.
Why don't people just wear contact lenses like they're supposed to?
I wonder if I can hire a skywriter . . . ?
It think this person who abuses FreshLook One Day disposable contact lenses should just stick to glasses.
Here's that thread: http://www.lens101.com/daily-disposable-contact-lenses/10503-daily-disposable-contact-lenses-like-paper-plates.html |
I've seen that thread around, too, and I think it's a good analogy. I think it helps people to understand why daily contact lenses are so called.
I wonder if anyone can explain why people use something that's clearly called "One-Day" on the box for weeks or even months?
