Hi!
Maybe you guys can help me out with this, is there a benefit with using disposable every 2 week contacts versus the 6 month contacts?
I asked my opt but he really did not explain it to me and just said that the 6 month was more convienent.
The reason I am asking this is my eyes were burning really badly for some reason, I doubt it's pink eye (my eyes aren't pink). So my general doc gave me a steroid (tro something) and said to use it 3-4 days. Though I wanted to use it more, I didn't continue to overuse since it's a steroid and could give me Glucoma and well, gotta listen to my doc. So the burning went away but there is still like 2 percent burning. I am going to the Opth this week but just wanted to ask you guys if you think its' due to the contacts and improper cleaning?(More opinions are always good).
I'm pretty sure it's not due to contacts scratching me cuz I don't have blurred vision and I use soft contacts.
I currently use the 6 month throw away contacts.
Haha okay, that's it for now. I hate eye infections, it hurts like hell...grr
