How can I convince my parents to let me make slime?

I used to make slime with Borax, but my parents got paranoid after that 11-year-old girl got chemical burns and they took away all of my ingredients. Making sine with baking soda and contact lens solution is totally safe, but my parents (especially my dad) never hear what I have to say. How can I convince them otherwise?
Added (1). I meant slime, not sine.

Why do my contact lenses itch and irritate my right eye the same time everyday?

For the past few days I've been noticing that after around 7 hours of wearing my contact lenses, the left eye is perfect but the right contact lense starts out small and then the irritation keeps getting bigger and bigger like it's dirty. It's not dirty because in the morning I wash my hands I replenish the solution and I soak the lense in solution before putting it in my eye. Please someone tell me what is wrong with my eye because I look bad in glasses and I need to stay with contacts. P. S. I used to wear them more than 8 hours a day when I was busy and I had long days I used to wear them for 12-14 hours straight and this never happened!

Why is one of my eyes slightly blurry with contact lenses?

I just got lenses for the first time. The perscription should be right since I have glasses and can see perfectly with them and I can see clearly out of my left eye but not my right. I rubbed my right eye quite a lot trying to get the contsct out yesterday, but it's not uncomfortable in my eye, just my vision is slightly blurred. Why is this?

Are there any google glass-clones or other wearable android or linux systems, not neccesarily using the specific display glass uses?

like, just anything, clones, ripoff designs, analogs, etc, really anything that isn't just HDMI/ VGA goggles/sunglasses, anything more dicrete than that, unless of course they use all the proper focusing lenses and etc to make it in an almost normal looking sunglasses form factor, not neccesarily in that case being transparent, and the same goes for all of them, it doesn't neccesarily need to be transparent, though i'm not looking for anything which blocks out both eyes.
Added (1). even just a half decent display unit, without the attached computer. I'm quite capable of programming/constructing a display driver for it for whatever i want to display on it.

I have astigmatism on both eyes and was wondering if I can wear my contact lens prescription without the astigmatism correction?

Foreign body sensation while wearing contacts. What can I do?

I had been using a certain brand, which didn't cause this problem but later it caused bumps to form on my eyelid, and my optometrist recommended oasys hc+ lenses, which I can wear even with my bumps. I use eye drops before putting them in.

They are okay in the first few days but after like 5 days I get foreign body sensation throughout the day and I can hardly focus.

Is there something I can do without seeing my optometris about this?

Should I wear my glasses?

I'm myopic in one eye and I've been prescribed with glasses, and I should wear them all the time. I've been wearing my glasses for a month and a half now and I noticed that my eyesight seems to be worse when I take them off. The left eye's (myopic) vision seem to change. It feels a bit blurry when I look from the middle of the lens, but clearer when I look from the edges. When using both eyes I can see much better, there isn't any problem though. I mostly do close work (writing, using electronics etc) and some say that wearing myopic glasses makes it worse and should only be used when looking things afar (I sit the farthest from the board during classes) so should keep on using my glasses when I'm doing close work?

When will my eyesight stabilise? (If at all). Laser eye surgery with astigmatism?

I'm 22 (23 later this year), and have been wearing glasses since I was around 7 years old.
My left eye is around -4.50 and my right eye is -2.50. Every year I go to the opticians, my eyes seem to deteriorate and I usually need a new prescription.

I have just got some disposable contact lenses, too, and my right contact lens is a slightly weaker prescription than my current one because of the astigmatism in that eye, and there not being any disposable contact lenses to that power atm.

I'm wondering if it IS true that your eyesight stabilises in your mid 20s? Ideally, I want my eyes to deteriorate as little as possible, as the more they deteriorate, the more I will be unable to wear my contact lenses.

Also, I hear it's possible to get laser eye surgery with astigmatism, but also that astigmatism seems to get worse with age - so how would that be possible?

Thanks for any explanations!
Added (1). Also, just for reference, I'm short sighted.
Added (2). My contact lenses are already Toric. The details are:
L: SPH: -4.50, CYL: -1.25, AX: 170
R: SPH: -2.75. CYL: -2.25, AX: 180

Can I be excused for an exam if I have my eye test exams receipt, and optomologist stamp and signature?

My lenses broke and I have poor vision. I'm planning on taking it in the future.

Do I have marfan syndrome?

I'm a boy and I'm 14 years old and I'm worried that I have marfan syndrome. I am kind of tall and skinny, but I'm not unusually tall, and I have pectus carinatum. My fingers aren't that long, but they aren't perfectly straight either. I also noticed some stretch marks on my lower back, but I have grown a lot recently and I think it might just be from growing. I don't have ectopia lentis, but I'm nearsighted and I wear contact lenses. I've been to the doctor before about my rib, and they never said I had marfan syndrome, but I never mentioned that I was concerned that I had it. Also the roof of my mouth is kind of high. Do you think I have it? I hope I don't.
