I'm not talking about leaving your lens in your eye overnight. That's completely different. You don't blink when you sleep. Many daily disposable lenses won't let enough oxygen get to your cornea when you sleep. There are some studies, and some doctors, who don't think it's a good idea for most people to sleep in any contacts.
Can you give us a link to one or two of these studies that show that you should not sleep in any contact lenses? Is there an article that can be ready by someone who is not a doctor or a graduate student, just regular Joe?
