[EddieWinslow1983]

Ive been wearing glasses my whole life and thinkin about switchin to contacts. Never wore contacts in my life, dont know much about em. What are good brands ?Any help would be appreciated.

I've been wearing contacts since 4th grade lol. I didn't make the switch to disposable ones until about two years ago though.
Just get an eye exam and the doctor will probably determine which brand will be best for you.

your doctor is going to tell you what to wear, not NT. you can't just go in and pick up a pair of contacts on a whim.

Yeah you can't just go pick them up because they're going to have to measure and things like that

prepare to have one hell of a time putting them on for the very first time

yup. it took me about 2 hours to put them in the first time, but i guess it's how quickly you get the hang of it, it now takes me a couple of seconds toput them in

Get disposable ones if you can afford them. My friend has nasty habits with his monthly contacts. He wears them out to 3 months, and if they start getting dry,he sucks on them in his mouth to get them wet. He sleeps in them often too. Which you should never do.

Actually, you can. Well. Not necessarily a whim you have to be fitted for them but most people can wear any of the brands out there which is upto the patient to choose though the doc will definitely recommend brands if you're unsure of what you want. Cost is another big thing to consider,they're generally not covered by insurance so the cost of the lenses is on the buyer. I buy mine from 1-800-contacts. I wear the focus day and nights,but prior to those I wore the regular focus 30 day disposables.
