Off contacts lense Week 1

Firstly, let me expose you to life of a contact lens wearer..

The first few months of wearing contacts, you will be struggling, only putting on from time to time cuz takes to long to stuck it in ur eyes..

Afterthat, you will be damn used to it and its like your second eyes, till you refused to go anywhere without it.. As for me, from the moment i wake up till the moment before I sleep.. and the earlier times i remember sleeping with it on.. those days are gone now..

After 1-2 years of neglect, your eyes will start to suffer from redness from time to time (complications from contact lens)... occassionally need to stop wearing for few days to let things cool down and oxygenate the eyes.. haha.. and worried everytime you cry or rub your eyes etc, cos of contact lens..

Alwiz having to carry a contact lens solution in handbag, even more important than tissue paper.. incase suddenly stg gets into the eye etc u'll end up having to clean it.. Nightmares during trip.. now with the 100ml limit on flights rule.. have to look for those 100ml solution.. Weirdly, some brand says 'travel kit' but 120ml.. zzz... have to bring lens case, n xtra lenses.. etc..

After you eyes really couldt take it anymore, you'll upgrade to daily lens.. which is what i am using now.. more hygienic but still cant wear for long hours.. glasses? stopped wearing them since 10 years ago.. so whats next???
This..hehe..

Have to lay off contacts for 2 weeks... booked my appointment with so called the pioneer opthalmologist at optimax.. yee.. see how it goes.

wish me luck!!
