Had glasses since I have been 8...
I really can't stand trying to put contacts in.
Have to go in to get my eyes checked tomorrow.

I had an issue, which is understandable, about putting on object on me eye.

At first it took me 10-15 minutes just to put in both contacts.

Now it comes second nature. No BFD

They are just as expensive as Lasik.

The ones I used to use could be flipped inside out, you can tell right away when you put them on backwards cause they don't work right. Just put the lense on the tip of your finger and look at the edge closely. If it has a flat edge sticking out, they are inside out. The edge should be smooth in the correct position. It is also a good idea to handle the lenses with your ring finger(s) because they are not as rough as your index finger(s), at least in theory.
