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 just came across ortho-k where you wear the contact at night to reshape the cornea for corrected vision in the day without lenses. Sounds interesting. Kinda like a retainer for your eyes.

Thanks Steve, I had 20/20 vision 'til about age 50. I've become nearsighted over the years and need glalsses to read street signs, see the baseball at a game, etc. But, I also now need reading glasses to see small print, so i have prgressive lenses. I will ask about the orto-ks - sounds like they might be a solution for one of the problems. My appointment is next thursday with an optometrist at lens crafters that was helpful.
