I've always used ACUVUE but am thinking of trying new brands, any recommendations?

Which acuvue lens are u used? Why change?

I wear ACUVUE oasys. Have been seeing some ads for new contact lens brands and thought might be time for a change to give my eyes something new, I've been wearing ACUVUE for more than 10 years!

ACUVUE hasn't been giving me problems, but just wondering if there could be more affordable alternatives that are just as good.

monthly lens cant beat oasys 2 weekly, only oasys daily lens are more comfortable than the 2 weekly, but much more costly.

Oh I see... so oasys is really the best out there? Not keen on daily because of the price. Have stuck with biweekly because of hygiene and comfort factors (compared to monthly) - looks like this was the right move? Haha

Just wondering, how often do you recommend an eye checkup for contact lens prescription? My current prescription dates back to 8 years ago! Wondering if it's time to do an update.

For sharing, I have been checking on my degree (made new spectacles etc) but there hasn't been much change. My degree slightly lowered, but nothing too drastic.

Once a year check for anyone above 20, far power stabilise after 20 also unless u torture your eyes with alot of near work. Contact lens check every once a year also for above 20 will do.
