Nowhere. Talk to any American eye doctor (except the EyeDoc in Woodbourne

) they'll advise you otherwise

Iv'e been wearing contacts for about 15 years and I am generally happy but sometimes my eyes get irritated and the lenses are uncomfortable.

I was wondering if anybody can provide any feedback on the lenses that they are wearing or have worn in the past.

When I went to the doctor last she did say that my lenses are a very old model.

Thanks

She couldn't provide you with a new type to wear?

Personally, my eyes are not the best for contacts, but my doctor gave me the Dailies AquaComfort Plus. Daily lenses really help.

She did not want to because she knew that I was going to buy the contacts online and not from her.

Aren't you (or your insurance) paying her to fit you?

I feel like the doctors all want you to buy contacts from them and when you don't they wont help you choose any contacts.

Almost on topic:
A few years back my friend pointed out to me that no rub doesn't mean that you don't have to rub the contacts, as you are supposed to clean by rubbing every day. (Seriously, on each no rub solution, the directions still say to clean, and there are prob a few pshatim giving in "no rub") Still, I rarely clean them each night. Was wondering what everyone else does...
On price for solution, I was using WalMart brand for under $5 a bottle, until Costco had a coupon for the Kirkland one and it came out even cheaper!
Have not bought contacts in years as they last a while by me, but great thread, as I'm prob due a new supply around Pesach time!
