Something astonishing happened today.
I have had the same prescription for 20yrs since I first started wearing contacts. In the past three weeks I have had headaches and eye aches. I noticed my vision was blurry and decided to go get a check up, fearing my vision had gotten worse.
JUST the opposite it got better!!!
The doctor told me that 50 percent of the time when people have worn the contact I have come in complaining of blurry vision it had actually gotten better. Whatever I thought. My vision is HORRIBLE without lenses. In contacts I wore a 7.5 after today my vision was 6.62. Almost 4 step towards better vision.
She explained since I wear "Night and Day" they are made to be worn 24/7 for a week. I take em out every night. They allow more oxygen into the eye than any other contact. Due to contacts decreasing oxygen getting to your eye it has to compensate by having more fluid. That increase stretches your eye, causing worse vision. The increase of oxygen with these contacts allows my eye to need less fluid and she said that causes the eye to shrink and your vision to get better.
Now I have worn them for 2 yrs and my vision got better.... Go figure.
I must say they are by far the best disposable contact I have worn. They are more expensive than others, but seem to last much longer. I wore one pair for 8 months, then I lost one and just went to a new pair.
If you wear contacts check em out.
