I have distance vision number of 0.5 and near vision of 1.0 in both eyes. I work 10 hours on computer every day. Should I go for progressive lens? What are the advantages?
Added (1). Distance Number is -0, 5
Actually want to know that whether progressive lens will help me in viewing my computer better or buying a seperate set of +1 specs is good for computer viewing.My optician suggested that progressive lenses have been made keeping the requirement of computer users in mind.

Contacts are really hard to get out!
Hey, guys! I just got contacts two days ago, and as you're thinking, "Oh course you're going to have trouble at first!" Well, when I was at the optometrist they told me to try to put them in and I did it fairly quickly with not much trouble, then about 30 mins later they told me to take them out and it was SUPER EASY. I put them back in pretty quick, then left.
When I tried taking them out at home, it was extremely difficult and took about an hour to get them both out of my eyes for the day. They were in there for about… 3 hours, I'd say?
Then yesterday right after school at about 4 I put them in which took about 25 minutes (I also had makeup on, making it a bit harder) then at about 1 AM I grew tired and decided to take them out for bed. I have a magnifying mirror and a chair I sat at for about 45 minutes and I couldn't get them out and grew extremely angry and upset, so I took a break and relaxed to calm myself down. Afterward, I tried again after putting a little bit of Opti-Free in my eyes which didn't help. After about 15 more minutes my brother cleaned his hands really good and tried getting them out gently, and he couldn't get them out either. Then he put a drop of Opti-Free in my eye and after 5 minutes the right side contact came out, but the left one wouldn't budge. We put 2 drops of Opti-Free in it and it just irritated my eye and made it slightly red. We put a little bit of Bio-True in the eye and the irritation went down and about 20 minutes later he got it out, we put the lenses in the Opti-Free solution in the case because Bio-True isn't a cleanser, it's just lubricant eye drops my optometrist gave me. I haven't put them in yet today, but I was wondering if I could have tips on getting them out?
Also, I have A. Oasis soft lenses if that helps. I'm kind of squeamish and touching my eyes doesn't help.e. e
Thanks guys for your answers in advanced!

Is it possible for contact lenses to change eye color?
I wear normal (uncolored) prescription contact lenses. I just got back home and took them off (after a long day of taking The SAT). I notice that my eye color suddenly turned lighter.It was very very dark brown before. Now it's like a lighter brown.Do u think I'm crazy or is it possible for it to change eye color? Or am i just like hallucinating from the test (my eyes were extremely dry during the entire 4 hours)

I got eyeliner on my contacts.?
Yesterday I bought my first liquid eyeliner and decided to try it out today.
So this morning I put some on the inner ring of my eye, and the eyeliner ran onto my eyeball… and my contact lenses.
When I look there was a slight black water line on my eyeball, but after a few blinks it had gone.
I took my lenses out just now and they look perfectly normal, but I'm still anxious.
Have I damaged my contact lenses? This is a brand new pair and I can't put another in for a month, but I want to know so I can remember in the future to put my eyeliner on before my contacts…

Can i join the military with my vision?
I am interested in joining the military my vision is horrible.My prescription is
6.25 + .75 x 90 the guidelines and rules to pass the vision requirements are below
thank you
The causes for rejection for appointment, enlistment, and induction are:
a. Distant visual acuity of any degree that does not correct with spectacle lenses to at least one of the following:
(1) 20/40 in one eye and 20/70 in the other eye.
(2) 20/30 in one eye and 20/100 in the other eye.
(3) 20/20 in one eye and 20/400 in the other eye. However, for entrance into USMA or ROTC, distant visual acuity that does not correct to 20/20 in one eye and 20/40 in the other eye is disqualifying. For entrance into OCS, distant visual acuity that does not correct to 20/20 in one eye and 20/100 in the other eye is disqualifying.
b. Near visual acuity of any degree that does not correct to 20/40 in the better eye.
c. Refractive error (hyperopia, myopia, astigmatism), in any spherical equivalent of worse than -8.00 or +8.00 diopters; if ordinary spectacles cause discomfort by reason of ghost images or prismatic displacement; or if corrected by orthokeratology or keratorefractive surgery. However, for entrance into USMA or Army ROTC programs, the following conditions are disqualifying:
(1) Astigmatism, all types over 3 diopters.
(2) Hyperopia over 8.00 diopters spherical equivalent.
(3) Myopia over 8 diopters spherical equivalent.
(4) Refractive error corrected by orthokeratology or keratorefractive surgery.
d. Contact lenses. Complicated cases requiring contact lenses for adequate correction of vision, such as corneal scars and irregular astigmatism.
e. Color vision. Although there is no standard, color vision will be tested because adequate color vision is a prerequisite for entry into many military specialties. However, for entrance into the USMA or Army ROTC or OCS programs, the inability to distinguish and identify without confusion the color of an object, substance, material, or light that is

Can I use expired contact lens solution?
I have soaked my contact lenses in expired contact solution (7-8 months) in an emergency.Is it okay for me to wear the lenses next day or should I buy my regular lens solution (clear care) tomorrow and let the lenses soak in that before I wear them again?
Added (1). Clear care solution says it has 3% hydrogen peroxide. Will it properly disinfect the expired solution that I had to place my lenses in?
