I remember the second pair I had gotten.. Extended wear. Waking up the next morning was a real treat! Open eyes and everything is in focus... WOW!!!! This was too cool.
I'm back wearing glasses today.. After about 7 years of use, I was getting extremely lazy about taking them out. The last time I had left them in for almost 4 months without taking them out... Oddly enough I found that for me leaving them in for longer periods extended their life... But on the down side some pretty good sized blood vessel were developing on the surface of the eye in an effort to get more oxygen to the part of the eyeball under the contact I suspect. Because of this laziness, I decided to just stay with glasses..
Rcently I considered the laser surgury... The choices were $4,000 for the surgury ($2,000/eye)... $36,000 for a new truck ($36,000/truck) .... $4,000 ... $36,000. My new truck will be here in mid May!
