I read something that said that Magic Clip eyeglasses make "full use of advanced technology." By "advanced technology" do they mean magnets, which have been familiar to the Greeks, Indians and...

Are these glasses so "rimless" that your friends didn't think you were wearing glasses when you say them from a distance?

A website I came across kind of gave the impression that M+ 1140 glasses are all the rage this year. Can any of you attest to their true popularity? Do you know a lot of people who wear them?

I'm not terribly brand conscious, so when I buy glasses, I just look for a pair that looks nice on me. I don't actually know what brand I wear.
Are you the same way, or do you wear Luxottica...

The comic books would have us believe that you could be face to face with the Man of Steel himself and not recognize hum because he was wearing a business suit and glasses. Are you like Superman (or...

Not many people can afford a second pair of glasses, but maybe you can. Do you have a pair of Lucky Michelle AF glasses for work and another for relaxing with friends after work? Would your friends...

On one glasses website, it was said that Lilly Pulitzer Bamboozled eyeglasses were made in Italy in 2008. Does that mean they're not being made any more?

While researching these glasses, I found out that they are made in Korea. Does that influence your decision to buy them?

People choose their glasses for a variety of reasons. Some like the color, some like the shape, while others are impressed by a brand name. What made you choose your Lido West glasses?

So WRLens says that their clients are satisfied, but YouTube users have other ideas.

Have you checked the lenses on Lens.com? They might not be as fancy as Soloticas, but you'll probably get...

I don't think ICU2 is selling a pair of sunglasses, just telling you about them in general. You can buy Jones New York sunglasses on line.

I checked out that site, dane38 and I clicked on the checkout button and it took me to a page with a form to put my name and address and stuff. Is that what you saw?

Welcome to Lens 101, Levona. There's another whole thread about this subject with Special Guest Stars Lady Gaga and the Doctor.
...

Nope. I tried, Trixie. Of all the things Christina Applegate has done on TV, apparently, getting muddy was not one of them.

Here's a picture of her elegantly dressed, and showing her green-grey...

Wow, all those names are so last year . . . :rolleyes: :D

You're welcome, Jawa. I'm glad I could help. Now I just hope that my price quote has inspired someone to buy.

I chose that picture because it exemplifies the "big eye anime" look. 008erica asked about "Barbie eyes or Dolly eyes." That young lady in the striped sweater looks pretty "Dolly-eyed" to me.

There. I changed the misspelling in the title. Happy now? :p

Are those you're blue eyes pictured there, Stylinbabe?

Is there anyone else out there who wears Air Optix Progressive lenses? How long did it take you to adjust to them. How do you know you've adjusted anyway?

I did a quick search and didn't find any magic words that would summon only pictures that don't have those semitransparent watermarks on them. There are, however, websites that offer pictures that...

What do you mean by "misty feel"?

Way to promote the sponsor, Kirk. Nice job.

Nice catch, Jurassicmark.

It sounds like John316 wants to be wrong about closeups of Michael Jackson's yellow contact lenses being available.

Wow, it's like a sci-fi convention in this thread.

I'll go get my Master/Cheetah Person contact lenses.

Are you being sarcastic, Stairway?

I hope the fact that we haven't heard from you in a while means that you're doing okay and that those eye drops have done the trick.

That's a good question, Rhodes95. I'm glad you brought it up.

A halo, when it comes to your vision, is a fuzzy ring of light that surrounds a bright object like a streetlight. Look at the picture...

Wow, in the last thread someone said "Brittvid was right" and now here you say "I agree, Brittvid." I'm on a roll! :)

Let's say that again. "Brittvid was right." :p

That's a pretty good price, LP39A. Thanks for the information.

Do you mean Acuvue 2 Colors - Enhancers and - Opaques?

That's probably true, but think how many people can be helped if someone here could name a brand of contact lenses that former Radiance customers could switch to.

Thanks for the post, tames. I hope you'll keep in touch and tell us how you like those RGP lenses.

I hope that works for you, lensesforme. Lets us know, okay?

I really don't think that disposable lenses can stand up to a thorough cleaning. Read over this forum and you will find some people who just can't accept the fact that you should throw the lenses a...

I guess that, like tapioca pudding, rap music and abstract art, RGP lenses aren't for everyone.

Okay, well buckle up. I don't suppose we'll hear from you until after the bandages come off. (Do they bandage your eyes for PRK surgery?)

Oh, there you are. That was a quick reply. Okay, I found this on eHow.com, but I haven't checked the information so some web links might be out of date or something okay. Here's what it says:
...

Oh, right. So they'd buy some plain brown or blue contact lenses to cover up some strangely colored eyes, I get it.

Are those color contacts? If they are, see if anyone else comments on them.

I wouldn't call it "amazing." It's quite pink, and only has a few brands represented. It's not broken down into those few brand names like Lens 101 is. It seems to be a fairly new site. You might as...

Well bettydaviseyes, you have have created some new 1-Day Acuvue customers. I know I'm impressed.

Well, I'm happy with the "so far so good" part.

Probably because they were busy repeating "sodium hyaluronate" over and over again . . .

Is that the post minus the ling, FirstDown?

I did a Google search an most of the results were either blogs with questionable links to organizations, websites with people asking the same question I'm asking, but no answers are forthcoming, and...

It's not all that unusual for people to have issues with their very first pair of contact lenses, is it?

That was fast.

Well, then it sounds like you've got some very good lenses there. Well done.

For for those of us with double vision (and I'm thankful I'm not one of them) contact lenses are just not an option then, right?

I think we've got this prism thing figured out finally.

Perhaps they should count the votes again.

Going back and reading this post again, why shouldn't it be a surprise that an increase in computer use had coincided with a rise in visual problems? Are the two unavoidably connected?

Going back and reading this post again, why shouldn't it be a surprise that an increase in computer use had coincided with a rise in visual problems? Are the two unavoidable connected?

So what are you going to do with them now? I'd hate to just throw them away, but I don't see that you have any choice.

Hello JINH. Welcome to Lens 101. I'm glad you decided to sign up. It sounds like you have found some great contact lenses there. You say your eyes are a little bloodshot, but your not sure if it's...

What do you like to use to wash your hands before handling your Biomedics Torics? Do you use some of that rinse-free sanitizer? How do you make sure none of it gets in your eyes?

These contact lenses can be worn for a long time. They're made of a rigid material and won't rip, but sometimes they chip. Have you encountered a chipped lens on your contact lens journey? How long...

When you got your Air Optix Night & Day Aqua contact lenses, were you given clean instructions on how to use them properly? Did your eye doctor answer all of your questions? What are some of the...

What about yawning like everyone else was talking about? Did you try that?

Nice summary, John. Thanks.

It's okay, that happens. Hopefully we're get another posting soon.

So what are you going to do next, Jehf?

I don't know about your monitor, PYUser, but like me, my display is not too bright. :D

Okay, let's check the leader board and so we're up to . . . one vote. :(

So you just need contact lenses with a larger diameter, it sounds like.

Now, it seems that Hidrocharme and Hidrocor lenses only come in a diameter of 14.2 millimeters. Freshlook ColorBlends only...

It's great to read another success story, gowingstjc. Do you wear the same brand in both eyes?

What a great post, MatreenaRose. Thank you. I always wondered exactly what purposes multi-purpose solutions serve. Now I know. :)

How are you now, kymmhsn? Have you tried those contact lenses again?

Don't let the glasses people year you say that. They've got enough problems. :)

Hi ashleymarie0022. If you're wearing contact lenses that are 10 degrees off on the axis, it shouldn't be a big deal. When you get those 20 degree lenses you will probably be tested to see how well...

I hope you'll report back to us on how the SofLens Multifocal lenses work out for you.

I have an idea. If you wear or have worn OP-10 contact lenses, then maybe you can tell us all about it. Tell us what you think of your contact lenses. Are they comfortable? Are they easy to care for?...

Do you find yourself feeling more confident in yourself when you wear your contact lenses? Did you get rid of your insecurity when you got rid of your glasses?

Now that you've got your Vertex Sphere contact lenses, are you more outgoing than you were when you were wearing glasses?

How do you feel about getting your picture taken without your Biomedics EP lenses in place? Do you run and hide when a camera appears and you're wearing glasses?

Bootz is right. Keep trying different things until you find something that works for you.

These are called 1-2 week lenses, and it's my understanding that it's because these lenses can be worn continuously for a week or during the day only for two weeks. Which schedule do you follow?

These contact lenses are only mean to be worn for a few hours. Does that mean that they don't have very good UV protection qualities?

Are you ever seen in public with your glasses on, or do you make sure to never step outside of your house unless you've got your TruEye contact lenses in place?

Those sound like some good suggestions. Thank you.

These lenses, being gas permeable, aren't always the most comfortable things to wear. Can you suggest some things that other Lens 101 members might try to make their OP-3 lenses more comfortable?

How long have O-Perm 60 contact lenses been around? Are they a new innovation of the late 20th century or have they been around much longer?

While reading about the history of contact lens development, I read a familiar name: John Herschel. Herschel's claim to fame was that "in 1845 John Herschel came up with two ideas: the initial idea...

These H3 lenses are supposed to be good for an entire calendar year. How many of you have actually worn one pair for that long? Did you sleep in them at night? How often do you have to take them out...

What color eyes do you have, and what color Colors for Light Eyes contact lenses do you wear? Do you like they way they look in your eyes? Have you gotten a lot of compliments?

I've seen posts on this forum that say you can safely sleep in vial contact lenses and I've seen other posts on here that say that you should never, ever sleep in your contact lenses. Can you tell me...

I'm interested to know what vitamins and minerals are helpful in maintaining the health of my eyes. Can someone tell me what's good? Can I take anything that will actually improve my vision?

While learning more about contact lenses I found out that what I call "reading glasses" are often called "cheaters." Is that a British thing or what? Does anyone here reading this post wear...

Now that you've discovered Optimum Classic contact lenses, have you been able to take up old hobbies again like stamp collecting, auto mechanics and maybe even horseback riding? Anybody go back to...

As people get older and their eyesight gets weaker, sometimes I have to give up their hobbies, such a sewing or fly fishing. How many of you have been able to go back to your beloved pastime now that...

Can you wear your Fluoroperm 151 lenses for more than 12 hours? How about something along the lines of 15 hours? Do those rigid lenses stay comfortable for as long as that? Are there drops or...

I heard about someone who opted not to have LASIK surgery, but keep their RGP lenses. That's because when they wear contact lenses, they can still get the LASIK and if their vision changes, getting a...

These lenses might cost more to begin with, but the soft disposable lenses may wind up having to be cleaned and maintained more often. In your experience, have you found that hard lenses such as...

I've heard that one of the advantages of RGP lenses over soft is that unlike soft lenses, RGPs remain transparent longer since they don't scratch or crease or pick up deposits like soft lenses do....

Maybe that lady needs to put her contact lenses in. :D

Thanks for posting that picture, Georgia.

I found these. I guess if you want brightly colored Versace sunglasses, pink is your only option.

Maybe the hit count is going up, but we're still not hearing from people who have suffered the consequences of wearing their contact lenses for too long.

I checked three or four Boston lenses at Lens.com, and they all seem to be $34.95 each.

Yeah, that's a whole different story.
