I'm using dailies, Acuvue for Asti. (no moist or watsoever)
here got Japan words in the front left corner and 1/3 back of the box.

Me paid $60 for this box (1st timer).
Means $120 for 30 pairs of contact lens. Am I over charged?

where got $40 one?
Usually, you all use one pair for how many days?

anyone knows if optical shops sell dailies in a day or in a week?
coz i dont wear lens that often, so it's super wasteful to spend on monthlies.

astig is more expensive than the others... 60 for a box is already cheaper than the rrp of 68 per box. i went to every optical shop in parkway all selling for 68..

oic.. I think I will probably change to Acuvue Oasis (for astig) (release few weeks ago)
One lens can last for 2 weeks or 6 days w/o taking out.

Dunno if I take out every night, can last for 4 weeks or not? what are the danger?

Cheaper this way. Moreover, Dailies Astig is only to 1.75 (Oasis got 2.50)... One of my eye is slightly more than 2.00. Can use if go for camp... dun need to take out.

According to their website.

Contact lens can dont take out?
Any issue or problems? Discomfort?


You cannot wear your contact lens for more than 8 hours a day, usually i will take out and switch to glasses when i got home.Eyes need oxygen if you wear too long, the eyes will be derived of oxygen and may cause dry eyes/infections..
