Is it advisable to go on a trial ? Or doesn't really matter as long as it suits you for the first 5 minutes of testing the lens ? I want to get a pair of contact lens myself ... but no idea whether should I go for a trial or just go test it up for 5 minutes and done ... ?
in Aussie : we have to pay $120 for a month trial ... Doing everything like preparing you to contact lens ... Order special lens for you ... Or in Malaysia : my friends actually just went to the optometrist and test their preferred lens for 5 minutes and then ... walaa ... contact lens ! |

Just the normal transparent one would do . I'm interested in the brand O2 as a lot of my friends are using and they said that it is a good lens . I don't know whether does it suits me or not . How do I know if I'm sensitive to some of the lens before trying it on ? I thought that different people required different type of contact lens' material and size ? Am I wrong ? |

i used to wear contact lense, more than a year, but now i prefer back to glasses since i felt very itchie in my left eye and it didnt stop to water the last time i wore it..
i thought it was because the lenses, i did everything to clean the lens including using the aosep solution (where they claim the lenses will be superclean after you soak them in the solution for atleast 6 hours), but i still having the same experience... but i only experience it in my left eye, while my right eye feel just like normal.. so now i think it is not because of the lens, maybe its just my eye problem... now im wearing glasses back, but i still thinking of wearing lens for special occasion only, so im considering daily disposable lens would be suitable since i will be only wearing them once in a while... i need ur advice which brand of daily disposable contact lenses giving the best comfort and clear vision.... fyi before this i use to wear airoptix and really satisfy with it.. (until i experience the itchiness)... |

hi jialat,
i'm currently wearing freshkon, the pamphlet states that it can be worn for 10 hours, which i follow (ahem). but some days when i'm out all day i want to wear it for about 12 hours. can i just take out the lenses and wash it during the middle of the day and wear it back? also, is it possible to buy one box of blue contacts and one box of green contacts from you? i want to wear it for cosplay for one day only so i don't need so many lenses |
