Thanks jialat for all your useful advice.
My question is: Which is better for eye health in the long run, contact lenses or spectacles?
I've been wearing contact lenses for the past 7 years and most of the time more comfortable than not. I very seldom wear specs out. But which is actually healthier since I spend most of my waking hours in front of the computer?

Hi jialat,

Need your advice. I'm wearing monthly disposable lenses but I don't wear it everyday because I tend to wear glasses about 3-4 times a week. Can I dispose off the lenses after the 28th wear or must I throw it after 28 days of opening it?

Noted..thanks. Also, I'm using Ultrasonic Lens cleaner (contact lens cleaner machine) to clean my lenses after every wear. Is this actually good?

Oh ok ok.
But since using the lens cleaner, I do not have any problems with 'blurred' vision when wearing which happens quite often and I'll need to blink and blink to get comfortable again. Any negatives with the lens cleaner?

Thanks jialat for the info..must be that I never used to clean the lens properly with my fingers since the machine seems to be doing a better job than me

Hi jialat,

I am currently using Proclear Toric monthly disposable lenses because I have poor vision + astigmatism. I usually wear glasses on weekdays and contact lenses on weekends, so maybe at most wear contact lenses about 3 days a week. Do you think I should switch to daily disposable lenses instead, since I don't wear contact lenses everyday? If yes, can you recommend any daily disposable lenses for me? Also, if I stick to monthly lenses, any to recommend or should I stick to my Proclear Toric? I have been using this for more than 10 years now, so thinking if got better ones to try? Thank you

Hi jialat, care to elaborate on the 'risk of infection' part?

With the Acuvue Moist Daily Toric that you recommended, do you mean Acuvue Moist for Astigmatism? (see link)
