viper146 SG I am considering buying contact lens for myself to replace my spectacles but i no NOTHING of them. So can you guys help me out? I got a few questions. 1. Whats the price of contact lens? 2. How many types are there? 3. How to maintain them? Thanks a million..
latenightmonster SG 1. Depends on the type. Hwahwa 2. - Permanent (not recommended) - Monthly disposables (what I am using. cheaper for those wearing everyday.) - Daily disposables (better for those who wear occasionally, coz no need the trouble of cleaning.) 3. Use a good cleaning solution such as AOsept FTW! Avoid wearing for more than 8 hours a day. Dont wear to sleep. Dont wear to go swimming. Go to your local optician bah, maybe get a trial pair and then try fitting in ur eyes first. And try pinching the lens out. May be tricky for first timers. Hwa hwa!!!!
latenightmonster SG Sorry to add on to Point #2 There are two main types: soft and hard lens. Most use soft lens. But I got a weird friend using hard lens. Need to use mini pump to take out the lens.
technoboy SG Yes, it cost almost double. So I did mine without astig but more on the power of my shortsighted so as to compensate for the astig...
