What happens if you use older technology hydrogel lenses (but not every day)?
Unlike most people, I don't hate my glasses. I have a strange habit wherein I use glasses one day, and contacts the next day (monday=contacts, tuesday=glasses, wednesday=contacts,thursday=glasses…).
I never use contacts more than 12 hours a day, and never sleep in them (unless accidentally, for half an hour to one hour max, but if this happens, i remove the lenses the moment I wake up and don't use them for the next 2 days).
1>Say I switch back from B&L purevision 2, to soflens 59, will this cause problems in my case? I used soflens59 before my doc switched me to purevision 2, and I think soflens 59 was more comfortable (and cheaper). I didn't have any problems with soflens59, he said he's switching because modern lenses are healthier.
2>Since I'm using contacts every alternate day, and the contacts are meant to be replaced monthly, can I use the same pair for 60 days instead of 30? In effect, I'd still be using the contacts for 30 days, as they will spend another 30 days soaking in OptiFree.
I'd appreciate if an eye-care professional could advice on this, contact lens users can help too but I strongly believe professionals know better than users like us.
Thanks.
