Default Sleeping in Acuvue 2 Contacts

Hi Walkaway,

Is that the Kelly Clarkson song? I love that song!
Anyway, you posted a question about using Acuvue 2 contacts for prolonged overnight use. I wouldn't recommend that. I just read something online that was an actual clinical study of overnight contact lens use. They compared Acuvue 2, PureVision and no contacts. Turns out that after one night and then after seven consecutive nights, the Acuvue 2 lens has more corneal swelling than the other lens, and it also took longer for the swelling to go down.
Hope that helps!
