I also have been wearing contacts for 25 years and focus 1-2 week for many years. The place I've buying them for years ran out of my prescription. One of the office workers at my opthamologist's office has been wearing Avaira and recommended them. I'm just finishing up my second week and they've been great. I found a couple of posts by people who also loved them early on but sometime between 6 months and a year they became less comfortable. I hope that doesn't happen in my case because the vision is great and they don't dry out or blur like my focus 1-2 weeks would if I wore them the full day.
