hey guys, im interested to get a pair of contact lens.
This will be my first time trying it so any suggestion for me?

Prefer cheaper one since just wanna try only.

biomedics 38 good, 38% water content, good for dry eye, so far i try good, thin, only problem that it might be hard to take out since its thin..

anyone using optifree solution here?

any differences between replenish and express?

:o

i using opti-free, expensive but good

those vial lens are perms?


there are 3 types:
Dailies, bi-weekly/mthly OR perm (6 or 12mth per lens if I not wrong)
Most people use bi-weekly/mtly, right?

if you everyday wear contact... perm is the more worth it one lah. followed by mthly/biweekly.
Dailies if you everyday wear very expensive.
the astig lens from dailies acuvue cost abt $4 for a day (I got 2 eyes) :s13:

Dailies one dun need to clean, but it is way $ than mtly/biweekly lens.
even if you get mtly/biweekly, still save alot.

Dailies are for those people who rarely use contact lens, use it occasionally only.
I suggest you go try dailies 1st. I realised that it is much thinner than mthly/biweekly lens. Harder to wear. Easier to tear. Do practise 1st. Tear nvm.. coz each lens only cost ard $2 mah. :D

I know you are a qualified OPTOM, but I still do not think it is right to come into a forum and start bashing everyone's lobang... in no way is such a small pie gonna help your business grow.

And it's really inethical to "bao tok" pple's tiny tiny side business...

so what if you are a qualified optometrist? :s8:
