    Default Wearing RGPs intermittently? - can you do it?

    Does anyone have experience with wearing RGPs intermittently, like 3-4 days a week? I ask because I heard that they can be difficult to get used to if you don't wear them continuously. That if you wear them intermittently you never get fully adjusted to them.

    Does anyone have experience with this?

    I'm afraid I cannot answer that one as I've only had mine about a week now. But I'm also afraid you aren't going to get any other responses - this forum seems to be pretty much dead. Your posts were the first ones this year...

    But it is a huge repository of info that you can search and read through!

    I read on line that it is best to wear RGP's 6 or 7 days a week , I want to know is it ok to wear them 3 or 4 days a week after I have gone through the adjustment period and able to wear them all day.
