If your eye doctor tells you that your contacts can last up to 4 weeks and you wear them for three, that's not "longer than recommended." Acuvue Advance are called "1-2 week
contact lenses," but that's just a guideline. Your eye doctor knows best how long you can wear your contacts. As long as your doctor knows how long you wear them and he or she is satisfied that your eyes are healthy, you shouldn't have any problems.
