Cibasoft Visitint for First Time Contact Lens Wearers

3scompany · #1 (**permalink**) 03-07-2008, 02:10 PM

CibaSoft's web site promotes their Visitint contacts as being a good choice for first-time contact lens wearers. Do you agree with the marketing department? Are these long-lasting but expensive contact lenses recommended for people who have never worn contact lenses before?

Discuss.

Hi 3scompany.

Thanks, now I've got that song in my head! "Come and knock on our door . . ."

Anyway, I don't wear vial contacts so I can't tell you from experience, but apparently the Cibasoft Visitint contacts are a bit thicker than most vial contacts, so they're easier to hold and won't rip as easily. This is a good thing for newbies handling expensive yearly contact lenses.

Hope that helps!

That sounds pretty reasonable to me, except that I would think that first-time contact lens wearers would want to try something really thin for comfort, even at the expense of something thick with the strength to resist tearing.

Tell me more, danova. What makes you say that CibaSoft Vistint contact lenses are good for beginners?

Do you have an 80's song in your head?

Maybe this will help:

I made it through the wilderness.
Somehow I made it through.
Didn't know how lost I was
Until I found you . . .

Bah! Now I've got that song in my head.

It keeps combining with Weird Al Yankovic song . . .

Excellent. Now, I have a special message for everyone reading this post from the Marketing Department of CibaSoft. Just watch the pretty lady with the heart locket. Watch the pretty locket swing. Back and forth. Back and forth. You are feeling more and more relaxed.

Now repeat after me: I agree with the marketing department.

The marketing department is my friend.

The marketing department would never lie to me.

Good. When I snap my fingers, you will remember nothing except the statements you repeated.

*Snap*

Thanks for reading my post.

And now a word from the Marketing Department . . .

Mm? What?

I must have dozed off at my computer. Where was I?

Oh yes. I just wanted to say

I agree with the marketing department.
The marketing department is my friend.
The marketing department would never lie to me.

These aren't the droids I'm looking for.

Pretty funny Artoo.

I understand Lens 101 can have a strong influence on the weak minded.

Let's hope so . . .

Do you realize that this thread contains pictures of Weird Al Yankovic and Obi-Wan Kenobi? That's quite a range.

You're too funny Artoo. That picture is perfect to go with this whole thread.

I know. It's so much fun coming up with cute comments and then adding pictures to kind of drive the comedic point home. Who says a website about contact lenses has to be boring?
