Advantages: Easy to use and clean, long lasting comfort

Disadvantages: The cost a bit more than standard lenses

I've been a contact lens wearer for over 10 years, starting off with dailies and moving onto these lenses about 5 years ago.

The main problem I had with dalies is that I push the maximum wear limit too much and by mid evening I really felt like they needed to come out.

I put my lenses in at 7am and take them out at around 10pm (bad I know) and it is very rare that they will dry out or irritate my eyes. They still feel fresh and comfortable until I take them out.

On the odd occasion where they do feel dry I use Revive drops to regain some moisture and they are back to being like they were when I put them in.

My main problem is keeping track of when to change them (every 2 weeks) and remembering to collect them from the opticians.

They are quite expensive I think, compared to other lenses on the market but they are well worth the extra money as compared to standard monthly lenses they are in a league of their own.

Each time I get my eyes tested the optician says they are happy with the condition of my eyes, so even if I over wear them they still let my eye breathe and changing them every 2 weeks keeps build-ups low.

Summary: Worth the extra money!
