Default Re: Use contact lenses?

Oh and in terms of having trouble getting them out, I am not sure if this is what you are referring to but contacts do deprive the eye of moisture/lubrication to a degree (except maybe those monthly continuous wear ones - never investigated properly!).

If they "stick" to your eye as you take them out it means they got too dry - you can do things to avoid/get round this:

- don't wear them for too long - max recommended for disposables is 12 hrs/day at least for mine
- have a 'blinking session' before removing them - helps to lubricate/moisten them
- get some of the 'refresher' eye drops and put these in at various points during the day (this is apparently a good idea if you wear them for long periods anyway - but I haven't got round to getting my own, have only stolen other people's!)
