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.

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.
Three quick notes about the pace clock I made.... I'm not sure the link goes to the correct clock but Target does/did have a $4.99 one. It's the same packaging though so you'll know what you're looking for. And before you glue the laminated pace clock face in place, make sure you've cut it at a circumference that fits. My jpeg might be a little larger intentionally so the black border covers the underface entirely. Again, if you need anythng, please let me know. And it won't stand up on it's own (why didn't Target make a square one?), so I glued a little base on the bottom. You could also add a little rope and hang it the starting block.
