I've already seen that picture of the cat stuck in the chair and it still makes me laugh. When watching America's Funniest Home Videos I always like the cat ones best.

What actually happened to you recently? You didn't quote the relevant post.

Don't you wish . . .

Does he wag his finger and go "ah, ah, ah"?

Yeah, I think you're right. There's not much more we can do about it here.

I'm glad you feel satisfied with the help you've found here. It seems like responses are happening faster and faster around here.

Who was it who said "If it's worth doing, it's worth overdoing"?

I wouldn't be surprised. You couldn't accuse her of being natural. :p

I think Lens 101 should do that.

Of course your husband is going to love the "real" you, but I'm glad he REALLY likes the contact lenses, too. I think that qualifies as a win/win.

Well, have you thought about warming them up? It makes sense that drops stored at a room temperature of, say, 75 degrees will still feel cold on an eyeball that's around 98.6 degrees. It probably...

Good. I hope things continue to improve for you.

That's very thoughtful of you. jellymelly14.

I'll bet he does--under a professional-looking lab coat.

Sometimes I think it looks good because it looks unnatural.

Wow, not just one or two, but six ways to determine if your Ray Ban sunglasses are the Real Deal.

Well, either Blue Cat is still thinking it over, or she has decided against posting her picture on Lens 101.

Yeah, I like to hear good news from time to time, and I find a lot of that here on Lens 101. It's not just a bunch of complainers, which is a good thing.

"I want to complain."
You want to complain? Look at these shoes... I've only had them three weeks and the heels are worn right through."--Monty Python, "The Argument Clinic."

That's a good idea. Maybe the Webmaster can see about sending out emails to people to let them know that someone responded to their posting. Is that something you would like to see here? I have...

It's been over a year since we've heard from MercuryBlue. I miss her. :( She's so cute with her Brilliant Blue ColorBlends.

Those are very good points you bring up, as usual, Knotlob. Thanks for making us aware of them.

Hey, nice work finding actual photographic evidence that Barbie has been known to wear glasses. It's confirmed!

How does one "break in" contact lenses? Is it just a matter of wearing them even though they're uncomfortable? Do other brands require this "breaking in period"?

Well, you asked, John Barleygreen. There's your answer.

If you stuck to your scheduled surgery on November 3, then we should be hearing from you soon with results. I'm thinking happy thoughts for you, cc(,``o.

Yeah, I can understand how that might be a bit of a problem.

Yes, I'd say that we all have nothing but good wishes for gidoc.

Yes, I've seen those pictures in other threads on Lens 101. It's a very pretty face with beautiful eyes, no matter what kind of contacts she's wearing--or not.

So in your opinion, people's opinions don't matter? :confused:

Sounds like that Tesco stuff is working out well for you, Pandy. That's a store brand of contact lens solution, isn't it?

How are those PureVison lenses working out for you? We haven't heard from you in over six months, babyfaces.

What do you do when you're waiting for a sale? I hope you don't keep on wearing old contact lenses that should be replaced. :(

I found another thread on Lens 101 that asks the same question. In that thread they say that Expressions Colors Monthly is a suitable replacement for Natural Touch. "Choose from eight great colors"...

So what is is about the Precision UV lenses that yo don't like? We don't want to recommend a different brand that has the same problem.

That sounds reasonable, but can anyone confirm that this is really true?

Oh, dear. Another poster who says they're going to try someone's suggestion and report back, and then we never hear back from them again. I wonder how that happens? Doesn't everyone check Lens 101...

Do you mean this link right here? https://www.jnjvision.com/imakeover/

Hi Astral. Your reply brings up a few questions. First of all, is your eye doctor okay with you wearing your monthly lenses for "several months at a time"? That sort if thing is inadvisable without...

Proclear Multifocal lenses, you mean? You went through 6 lenses or 6 pairs of lenses? Either way, perhaps you should review your technique with your eye doctor just to make sure you're handling them...

So you know if any contact lenses closely resemble the discontinued Illusions?

Your husband is a good man, but you probably knew that already. :D

As far as spending money on contacts that didn't work out, how could you have known? If you kept on buying them even after you...

Okay, here's a dumb question. If wearing contact lenses is such a chore, why not wear glasses?

I know I shouldn't say that on a forum that's sponsored by a contact lens company, but it just goes...

Do you get your medication from a national chain? I took a trip and forgot to pack my medicine. Fortunately I get my prescriptions from CVS and I just found a local store and it wasn't a problem.
...

Here's something new. I heard about a workshop for optometrists that featured a patient being fitted for contacts, and it sounded like it was going to be on stage like a musical number or something....

Have you had the opportunity to try some different kinds of lenses besides Biofinity Toric? What were your impressions? Did you like Biofinity better than any of the others?

What were you thinking about the very first time you put those ClearSight 1 Day Toric lenses in your eyes? Was it "Wow" or more like "Ow"?

How many of you expressed actual surprise when you put these lenses on for the first time because they were so comfortable? "Hey, these feel really good," you said. "I can't believe how comfortable...

That's a really, really long name, isn't it? Durasoft 2 Optifit Toric - Colors for Light Eyes. Have you ever heard people say "I read the ingredients. If I can't pronounce it, I won't eat it." Does...

Contact lenses are best when they're comfortable and easy to use. Would you say that Durasoft 3 Optifit Toric UV works on both of those levels? I have to say that typing out the name is less than...

So these "Complements" contact lenses. Do they completely change the color of your eyes, or just alter them slightly? Can you wear blue Complements over brown eyes?

I hear that some manufacturers are streamlining the fitting procedure for contact lenses. How can you do that without risking patient dissatisfaction or even injury?

So are you planning on spending time in the pool this summer? Do you have a pool? The big question is, are yo going to wear your Durasoft 3 Optifit Toric contacts as you frolic in the water?

Do you have any special plans this summer that involve your contact lenses? Are yo going to take the plunge and try out some Durasoft 2 Optifit Toric - Colors? Dive in!

Do you usually see your eye doctor this time of year so you and your eyes will be ready for another season of fun in the sun?

Well, that's not so bad, but I would prefer to see what the world might look like if I could see into the ultraviolet. So it would seem, then, that our eyes do have the ability to see UV, it's just...

Are those T9641 sunglasses clip-on as well?

Welcome to Lens 101, usmaak. That panic attack sounds like it was pretty scary. I'm glad you decided to press on.
The common thread I seem to see here is that your contacts are blurry until you wet...

That's why we're here. Why don't you tell us a little bit about yourself? What kind of contacts do you wear? Do you need special contact lenses like bifocal or toric?

I did a Google search for "Proclear compatibles rip" and here are some of the results:

"Proclear rip apart way too easily."

" . . . they rip...a lot."

"Cons: very thin, easy to rip lens."...

Well, of course I want to advertise for the sponsor, so I'd like to recommend Lens.com. The thing, is, I don't know if they ship to Macedonia. E-mail them at Service@Lens.com. It might just be worth...

Right. If you want to wear contact lenses for more than one day--and lots of people do--then you probably should stay away from anything that has "1-Day" right in the name.

I was wondering about something and hoping someone here could help me. Do you think that more kids are needing glasses and contact lenses these days because instead of staring at a TV screen three...

Some say that when they wear RGP lenses, the world around them looks "more real." Have you experienced that yourself with these lenses?

I just got done posting a picture from a colorized version of Casablanca. Some people think that old black and white movies should be made into color movies, while others shriek in horror at the...

Contact lenses make everything look sharper and clearer, but what about making things more colorful? I've heard that when some people wear contact lenses, such as O-Perm 30, to drop the name, colors...

In a famous Marx Brothers scene, someone asked Chico about Harpo. "You love your brother don't you?"
"No but I'm used to him," said Groucho.

How did you get used to your Hydro 02 contact lenses?...

Do you now wear Fluoroperm 151 contact lenses now when you're playing sports, even though you were trying everything else first? You tried glasses and even goggles, but they were just too cumbersome...

Shades and a saxophone. A double whammy!

Hi rog 107. There is a way to convert contact lenses to prescription lenses, and it's been explained on this forum before. The problem is that the conversion formula is insanely complicated. You...

If by "NT" you mean "Natural Touch" it looks like they have them at Lens.com. http://www.lens.com/contact-lenses/lens290.asp
I don't have a prescription for those otherwise I'd try and order them...

Looks like I got here just in time for you to find the solution to your problems and to just miss a Star Wars reference. I need to pay attention better.

I tried a search, but I couldn't seem to find "ICL" and "ulcer" on the same page. As I said before, I think that the doctor will probably want to make sure the ulcer is completely healed before doing...

I'm no eye surgeon, but I would imagine that before you could have the laser surgery you would have to have that ulcer treated first.

I found the Menicon website and it has a .com extension rather than .co.uk or something, so I'm guessing it's an American website. However, I couldn't find any place on the website where someone...

Gold star for Goldar! :)

Now if we can only do something about the Hydron Z4 shortage on the Enterprise.

I hope to see those pictures soon, KayCee.

Contacts that change color in different light is a good thing to me. Natural eyes do the same thing. Haven't you ever heard someone describe their eye...

I hate to say it, but the only reason he looks geeky is because of the glasses. My apologies to the folks at Ray-Ban. There are probably lots of guys out there who would like to have his hairstyle,...

You could go with a cheap plastic case.

You're welcome. I just call `em like I see `em, Betty.

Greeting to you, mabel_mic. Do you wear contact lenses?

It's because she has such beautiful eyes, right?

When your vision got worse this year, did you notice it before you saw the doctor? Did you think "I can't see as well as I used to. I should make an appointment with my eye doctor," or did you go in...

What would the new topic be? Is that like starting a new thread that says "something for a dressup party"?

Now you've done it.

"Scottie, I need Warp Factor Ten, now!"

"Captain, I canna give ye warp. We're dangerously low on Hydron Z4!"

"I want warp speed, not excuses, Mister!"

"Aye, Sir....

You're such a nerd, Ordersixtysix.

You and I are going to get along just fine . . . :)

I'm glad you think so.

Garfield is right IY00. At this point it would be best to start over and get fitted for a contacts again. Your base curve may have changed, or it may not. There's only one way to find out, as far as...

Thanks for getting the attention away from jellymelly, Aisha. She's cute and all, but I was beginning to think that you've forgotten about the one who started this thread. :D

I don't know anything about your eyes, but I do know that Boston has several different kinds of lenses, including XO2, EO and ES contact lenses. So maybe if the XO lenses aren't all that great, maybe...

Yes, that is the good Doctor, isn't it? Looks like he's having a bad day with his contact lenses. :eek: He's not going to be blinking any time soon.

This is what I'm saying.

Way to bust your fellow Lens 101 member.

I think video clip would be helpful on a forum like this. If I saw a video of Deejayt wearing her contacts and she looked beautiful--when she wasn't blinking rapidly and wiping her sore, red eyes,...

Would you be willing to put some glamorous pictures of your self in the eyeglasses section? You look so good in the contact lenses that if you wore glasses you might be downgraded from "gorgeous" to...

Really? There's intelligent life outside the North American continent? :rolleyes:

I checked that article and it said "Municipal water from [Hamilton] won the 20th Berkeley Springs International...

We say that here on the American side of the pond, too.

Are we still talking about accidentally getting pepper juice on your lenses? You could have at least threw in a Star Wars reference just to show that you're paying attention and not just randomly...

That's a good question, Juicer. Me, personally, my world would not come crashing down if Jennifer Anniston doesn't look exactly like her character Rachel. The show ended what, five years ago?
