QUOTE(RockItStudios @ Jul 22 2008, 02:22 PM)  he put mine in for me once, even though i had been wearing them for years. i was trying a new brand (for more moisture), and he just did it. it was cool/nice. =D Was it Acuvue Oasys?  Those ARE NICE.

O2 Optix > Acuvue
QUOTE(doiink @ Jul 21 2008, 01:05 AM) In second grade my mom had to drive me from SF area to FREMONT everyday so that my optometrist could put in my contacts for me...because I couldn't do it myself :( Why the emphasis on the word FREMONT? Is that because that's where I live?  QUOTE(Tungster @ Jul 20 2008, 07:35 PM) what else did he put in you. |

I hae astigmatism so I can only wear toric contacts. Since O2 Optix only offers monthly disposables, I'd rather wear Acuvue Oasys toric since they're biweekly disposables. My optometrists have told me that biweekly ones are better for your eyes.

I have astigmatism, so I can only wear toric lenses. O2 Optix only offers monthly disposable contacts for people with astigmatism, unfortunately. But I've heard a lot of great things about acuvue oasys and it's biweekly, so I'm trying that out right now.

They're pretty comfortable, I must say. :DMan it took me so long to put the first contact in my eye. But wow that optometrist put them in my eye like a pro - faster than I've ever put them in my eye, even though his hands were shaking. He was kinda old. |

That's pretty much what the dentist does is brush your teeth for you..
But yes, my optometrist has put in contacts for me, but it was because I was still learning. |

I'll do it myself, thank you very much.
Can't stand someone poking in my eye... if I move a millimetre I might go blind. |

First time putting in contacts, my optometrist put it in for me. Except she was really rough and I thought I would go blind.
