Does wearing extremely thick lenses cause any visual issues or is it only a cosmetic problem?

My girlfriend has a high prescription in both eyes and she chose to get oversize aviators with the cheapest lenses as her backup glasses. The lenses must be close to an inch thick.

Will she be able to see out of these when she needs to or will the distortion be too much to handle?

Is it okay to wear only one contact lense?

I have really bad vision and I've been using overnight contact lenses. I'm pretty sure that I have a corneal abrasion in my right eye and from what I'm told, you aren't supposed to wear contacts until it's fully healed. The problem is that contacts are my only means of clear vision, I don't have any prescription glasses. I'm really busy for this whole week so I can't visit my eye doctor until next Saturday or Monday. What should I do?

I've recently been diagnosed with Keratoconus and have a corneal hydrop, I really don't know what to do?

I'm 17 years old, and I had Keratconus for months now, but recently my left eye became inflammed, red and watery. I ignored it thinking it was pink eye but when my dad took me to the ER prior to seeing a gray spot on my pupil, they prescribed my eye drops that I really hate doing by myself and said it'll be better in two weeks.

I work and have school and the hydrops is disgusting to look at, should I patch it up or try contact lens?

Why would i need a magnified lens in my spectacles for the eye i can't see out of?

I'm writing this on behalf of my mum who can't believe that the optician has put a magnified lens in her specs even though she can't see out of it due to a detached retina several years ago.

A question about the care of contact lenses?

Say I get home one night, take my contact lenses off, wash them, and put them in the case. Is it okay to just put them on the next morning without washing them if I already washed them the night before? Or is it better to wash them before putting them on?

Does my Boss like me?

I'm 24 year old woman and I work as an assistant in an office.

I have one boss, who I'm personal assistant to.

I admire her very much, she is a good person but incredibly professional and good at business and always looks professional in trouser suits etc.

I never want to work somewhere I'm not liked, I'm not sure of her opinion.

For instance, she always calls me 'my dear' always polite, she is older than me, in her mid 40s.

Also she smiles at me a lot, for instance recently, she was dictating a letter to me and I typed it up, when I was typing an. I looked up and she was stood there smiling at me, then just continued with her letter.

She did compliment me, I wore glasses for a long time, but in recently got contact lenses, she noticed I no longer wore glasses and said 'you have nice eyes' I guess she hadn't noticed when I wore the glasses.

She insists I have lunch with her, she goes to eat at a nice restaurant at lunchtime and she insists I go with her to eat, sometimes she wants to talk work, but she does chat about herself and asks about me.

I have been to her house once, she lives alone but the reason I went was because she had left some papers at work, for something she needed to do at hone, so I went to her house and gave them to her, she actually called me to do that, she did invite me in for a drink however afterward.

Does she like me? Is she didn't like me would she say so or if my work isn't good enough, but she has never said anything.

So i just got my trial lenses and i wanna order solotica colored lenses. On my right eye i wear normal lenses that are -5.00 so i don't think i need to convert those, they didn't give me special lenses for that because my asitgmatism was only -.50.

What changes can I expect from switching back to wearing glasses from contact lenses after 8+ years?

I've always had bad eyes, so I would only wear contacts when I go out to avoid wearing thick lens glasses. A couple months ago I finally decided to get a new pair of glasses that best fit my style and I've been wearing it most of the time now.

Throughout the 8 years, I've had a few eye problems and tears. Now I'm wondering what types of healing or changes are happening underneath it all.
