I've been a contact lens user for about 8 years now. Compared to glasses, they're amazing. No comparison. Glasses have distortion around the edges which affect your peripheral vision, micro scratches which put fringes and starbursts around bright lights at night, and an annoying ability to become almost impossible to see through in rain or snow. Contacts have none of those problems, I get crystal clear vision all the time. I'll never go back to wearing glasses regularly.

I developed an allergy to at least one of the ingredients in the cleaning solution I was using after a few years. I'm told it's reasonably common. Manifests itself as red, itchy, dry eyes, occasionally requiring removal of the lens and rehydration of the eye. I switched brands/formulations and haven't had a problem since. I'm using astigmatic correction lenses. - mark _______________________________________________ Aus-soaring mailing list Aus-soaring@lists.internode.on.net To check or change subscription details, visit: http://lists.internode.on.net/mailman/listinfo/aus-soaring
