Default How Does Night Time Wear Compare to Day Time?

If the lenses are designed for overnight use, then one day equals one day. Simple.

If they're not designed for overnight wear, I've heard that one night equals 1.5 days. So if you wear your contact lenses for 24 hours straight without taking them out and disinfecting them, that would be equivalent to 2.5 days of wearing them only during the day.
