  |  Contact lenses Anyone wear them? Got any suggestions on which brand(s) won't dry out, or dry out the least, while on the bike? Aloha, Kehau

| I wore Focus Dailies for three years. I'm far too lazy to take care of lenses. They did all right, but I wear a full helmet. I still have a bunch of -1.25s if anyone wants them.

 | I used to wear them, but no longer require them. The doc tells me that my eyes got stronger with me wearing them all the time, like he advised and I can see okay now. I wear my glasses at random times, but that is usually when I am overly tired and Im straining everything to keep going.

| Did you know that the "daily" lenses and the "weekly" lenses are identical? The only difference is the packaging. If you have "dailies" and take care of them (store them in sterile fluid over night), you can actually use them several days. I was told this by someone working for a lens producer. It would be too expensive to develop different lenses for daily and weekly use, so they package the same lenses in two different boxes.

| I wear "vertex toric" contact lenses. I have for about 4 years now, and the only time i have problems with drying out is when I have been wearing them for more than 16 hours or so. As far as riding goes, they dont dry out very often (full face helmet).
