How to make expired contacts safe to wear?

I'm almost out of daily contacts and my doctor will order my new contact next week and I have a couple of 2 week lenses I didn't use yet but they expired in 2012. I know that after the date they won't be sterile anymore so is there any way to make them safe again? Like if I soak them in solution for a whole day or something? PLEASE HELP! I dont like wearing glasses, they make my walking unstable.

How to stop being a nerd?

Hello guys ^-^

I'm moving to a new school on Monday because I need a fresh start, and I was repeatedly teased for being a 'nerd,' 'geek,' and 'emo.' I really don't want to go through that **** again at my new school, so I need your advice, desperately. (I'm including a photo of myself so you guys can get the idea).

I've always been seen as a nerd because I used to wear glasses, but I eventually decided to get contact lenses. I guess I have a few reasons why I was seen as a nerd:

- I wore heavy eye makeup, I would tease my hair, and I constantly wore dark clothes and band merch.-.

- I listen to music which is often perceived as 'emo,' even though most of it isn't, (ie - Black Veil Brides, Bring Me The Horizon, Blink-182, Oceans Ate Alaska.).

- I've always been in set 1 for all my subjects, and I get high levels.

- I play the electric guitar.

- I used to be addicted to WOW and Assassins Creed, but I've tried to play those games less.

- I can be awkward at times, but I'm working on it I guess.-.

I really don't want to be seen as a nerd at this new school, so I really need some advice. Also, if you have any tips on settling in at a new school, I would appreciate that as well. Thanks in advance!

What is your opinion on Fishe Eye Lens by Nick Fishe?

I overheard two people talking about the book at a bus stop with very different opinions on the quality of the writing in the book. So I came to ask if was worth my time to read the book. What is the gist of it, are the stories good. From what I understand it is a compilation of short stories (mostly from his high school life) through Nick's eyes. So bottom line, is it a good book?

Will i need single vision or progressive lenses?

I need glasses i had a prescription mid last year and mine are as follows right sph -2.00 cyl +1.50 axis 130. left sph -4.50 cyl +1.00 axis 74. I still havent got glasses so theres no doubt my eyes are actually worse now. Im 20 years old and have needed glasses since i was about 12. Ive finally talked myself into getting glasses and will within the next month hopefully. I really hope i dont need progressive lenses because i heard they are really hard to aim and shoot guns with if you use iron sights. I also play alot of video games so i hope the motion and graphics dont bother me. Will these or any other specific things be more difficult to do with progressive lenses. Ps its not just bench rest target shooting its also hunting and moving while shooting. Self defense and all real scenarios. Im going to register for a ccw on my 21st birthday. One last question. You dont think transition lenses will be dark enough to interfere with using iron sights do you?

Do eyes become uncomfortable if contact lenses are worn for a long time?

How often do they need to be washed or taken out of the eyes. For how long is it safe to wear them continuously? Also, is it more or less comfortable than wearing light rimless glasses?
Added (1). What about the price? How much do contacts cost and how often do I have to replace? How much are the contact solutions and any other expenses?

Plano Solotica NC Colored Contacts VERY blurry?!

I recently ordered a pair of Solotica Natural Colors Contact Lenses in the color Cristal, from paranalentes.com
I received the package today and tried them on right away and they seem very blurry. I thought maybe my eyes just needed to adjust for a while but I've been wearing them and I can barely see!
They're in plano, I double checked on the vile they came in to make sure it was correct and these are supposed to have no prescription.
I am a regular colored contact wearer, I usually wear Freshlook Colorblends and have never had any problems with them
Solotica is a much more expensive brand from Brazil so I wanted to try them out but so far I'm just having a bad first impression…
For some reason I can see more clearly up close than far away, it's more like double vision.
When I close one eye, I can see perfectly clear through that eye, and it's the same with both eyes. WTF?

I do have astigmatism, I don't know if that would make a huge difference, it doesn't make a difference at all with the other contacts I've worn on a daily basis… I don't understand!

I've never had this issue before and I'm sooo disappointed!

How to enhance my appearance with hair and clothes? - 1

I have a roundish bulbouse nose, eyes that are kind of like Britney Spears/Marilyn Monroe and lips of average fullness, and I have a round face with a round sort of weird forehead. A lot of people say I look like a sweetheart. And here lately I've been looking kind of frumpy like I don't know what to wear or style my hair, so any ideas?

Bonus Question:
Should wear contact lenses instead of glasses?
