I leave them in too. I hate taking them out and then putting them back in. Once I take them out they're going to stay out for a while.

Thank you for your answers everybody. I've tallied the votes and I have three for "leave the contacts in" and one for "take them out," but jimmys devoted voted twice.

I think in most cases it's alright to add your eye drops with the lenses in, unless they require cleaning, as mentioned above.

I agree that there are times when it would be preferable to not have to remove them and then put them back in, especially if it's late in a work day or you're tired in general.

Late in the day or when you're tired, you take them out, otherwise, you leave them in. Thanks Ricardo. That sounds like a pretty good plan.
