Switching to contacts
I'm about to make an eye doctor appointment, and I'm thinking about trying contacts after having glasses for 15 years or so. Some quick web research reveals a plethora of options. I'm not sure whether to try one day disposables, 1-2 week disposables, regular soft contacts, rigid gas permeables, or the 30 day extended wear ones, or what. I'd appreciate anyone's experiences.
I'm leaning towards either trying to get a sample pair of the 1-2 week disposable daily wear to see if I can deal with contacts at all, or trying the 30 day extended wear ones. I like the idea of the change once a month convenience, but of course I'm concerned about long term eye health.
I spend 10-12 hours a day looking at a computer screen(mostly LCDs) as I'm a software engineer and I play that game we don't talk about here.
