Hi,

Question on the extended wear types.
Which brand/type offers the longest wear time i.e. without having to remove the contacts?
For e.g. I read online the Acuvue Oasys can be use bi-weekly if removed everyday, or for 6 consecutive nights. But the shop salesman says never heard of it and must take out everyday. Did I read wrongly or is the focus night and day really can be worn for a whole month without taking off? Are they recommended?
My work requires looking at computers all day long. I'm looking for long term replacement for my glasses. Not careful type thus prefer those requiring minimal care. I'm not really keen on dailies as I feel 8 hours per day is too limited for me.

Also, I have between -0.50 and -0.75 astig with one eye. At what level of astig will toric lens provide tangible vision improvements?


Thanks!

Ok thanks. I was hoping people actually starts wearing them for days though, not hours. Longest I've tried is just little more than 24 hours. Much more comfortable than glasses for sure.

Hi,

Just a note, the B&L Purevision 2 just arrived.
Superb service, ordered yesterday, arrive today.
Will try it next week, and see how it compares against Acuvue Oasys.

Thanks!
