So the optician usually tell you not to wear them in the pool...well that ain't happening if I need to see a clock or the workout typed in anything less than REALLY BIG FONT.
So I a curious who out there wears contacts and if you rinse them after you swim to remove any chlorine or contaminants. I find that I get very sore and dry eyes by the end of the day even if using drops. sO just looking for input.
I have been swimming with RGP contacts and goggles for a couple of years now. Used to swim semi-blind, but it is nice to be able to see!! Contrary to another person's comment, RGPs are not old fashioned, are better for your eyes and cost a whole lot less than disposables. To protect my every-day lenses, I use an older pair while I swim. So far, I have not had any issues with my eyes.
