However, the dailies were suggested b/c they had a good discount, and my ophthalmologist prefers dailies, period. However, my eyes were too dry with them. And I was very disappointed since I could see really great with them. He then tried Proclear and Clearview dailies but those didn't work out either. Acuvue Moist dailies is what I settled on and though they seem the best so far as far as wearability, I'll see how it goes long term. Don't see as crisp-clear with them as I did the Soflens but I have mild astigmatism and the aspheric aspect of the Soflens was great for me vision-wise. I read that the Acuvue Moist is good for people with allergies. Not sure if it truly is, but they have worked out the best for me so far. Hope this helps. It's just my own opinion of course, and it seems that each person has their own unique situation oftentimes.
Hi SueLynn. Thank you for your time.

I'm sorry if I sounded a bit rude up there. It seems that someone responded to my posting with some spam, and then I responded, and then the Administrator came along and deleted the spammy post, but left my reaction.

Anyway, enough about me. How are you getting along these days? Have you found contact lenses that allow you to see both clearly and comfortably?
