They are alright---requires a lot of cleaning though, else you might land yourself an eye infection

That's the very reason I don't want to use them

I'm short-sighted and wore very thick lenses for a while [the nerdy type]. My optician recommended contact lenses but when I saw all the wahala people go through, I decided to give up glasses altogether.

You should try the one day disposable ones----I'm not sure if they have it in colored yet
Re: Would You Use Contact Lenses? by Zahymaka(m): 5:53pm On Apr 12, 2006
Aren't those ones costly? And I hate prying my eyes open to fit something over -- besides you have to air the eyes or blood vessels will begin to grow over them to supply oxygen.
Re: Would You Use Contact Lenses? by desiree(f): 6:00pm On Apr 12, 2006
very true---- but if you are short-sighted, you got to do what your optician tells you.

When i consider the stress my friends go through gettin it in,i don't think i can cope with contact lenses.If the stress is out i think gettin a well-suited colour looks very stunning.

contacts are not bad, they are hard to fix into ur eyes at first but becomes easy when u get used to them. They can be very discomfortingly when u have them on for so many hours and "YOU DO NOT WANNA SLEEP WITH EM ON" if u don't want no serious eyes issue!!!
Re: Would You Use Contact Lenses? by queen2006(f): 11:47pm On Apr 13, 2006
Contact lenses are sexy if you wear the right colors. I have major eye problems and I use to wear clear contacts. After a while I got bored and decided to try the colored lenses, the attention you get with those is over whelming.

i use clear contacts. im very shortsighted and astigmatic as well. i have tried colored contacts in the past but i ditched em. i prefer the clear ones. my dreadlocs get me enough attention in this lagos, so its hard to combine the coloured eyes as well. i can do without the many stares and questions!!
anyway, contacts are very convenient, sometimes i even forget i have bad sight!! the only thing is, you have to be careful with your hygeine when putting them in or taking them out. that aint so bad is it? proper hygeiene no be sin.

Re: Would You Use Contact Lenses? by tamia(f): 7:30pm On Apr 26, 2006
i luv my contacts (hazel) my only problem is sometimes it takes my time i've never known how people just put them in easily! it takes me about 20 mins n dats time wasted so i don't have them on evryday
Re: Would You Use Contact Lenses? by Prada(f): 8:07pm On Apr 27, 2006
I'm short sighted as well and Ive been wearing contact lenses for years and for people who think lenses are wahala, trust me after you get used to it, it shouldn't take you more than a minute to put both lenses in. I've got big eye balls so alot of people think it really suits me. But really if you follow the optometrists instructions you should leave at least a day out in a week without contact lenses in order to allow a little bit of fresh air in your eyes.
Re: Would You Use Contact Lenses? by eveseh(f): 8:04pm On May 07, 2006

Re: Would You Use Contact Lenses? by 1ofall(f): 12:38pm On Jun 07, 2006
I used contact lenses for a while(clear ones), despite advice to the contrary-I've got extremely dry eyes, and I had to stop after a while. I got pretty good at putting them in, and taking them out, only took a few mins. You can now get the extended wear ones too,
I've also been considering laser surgery, but seeing as I am such a wus, I might be sticking to the glasses for a while yet.
Re: Would You Use Contact Lenses? by iice(f): 7:20pm On Jun 13, 2006
Yeah i love them and i wear them in gray and green, the gray works well for me, so does the green
Re: Would You Use Contact Lenses? by spikedcylinder: 1:17pm On Jul 12, 2006
I see a lot of girls(in Naija) wearing them(the fashionable ones) and in as much as it looks very good on some,on others its looks absolutely awful!
This morning a classmate of mine wore hers to class.Now see,she's light skinned with very brown and cranky hair.She wore the grey+a hint of blue coloured ones and lined her eyes so thickly with kohl.She looked gawdawful!As she sashayed around the class expecting everyone to notice her,there were histerical giggles coming from every corner of the room.I was embarrassed on her behalf.

Now,my question is,is it really fashionable wearing contacts? grin

Re: Would You Use Contact Lenses? by kellorah: 10:35pm On Jul 13, 2006
trust me, they are not always comfortable, especially if they are dry and it's windy. i wear contacts when i've got time on my hands and when i want to wear sunglasses. when i'm in a hurry i don't even bother. i just put on my glasses and off i go. i wear both but i wear glasses more. hate contacts,have to wear them to college though. sad

Re: Would You Use Contact Lenses? by zarah(f): 11:52am On Jul 14, 2006
I wear them, i love them. i usually buy the 3months disposable in either brown or green colorblends.

The colorblends look really sexy and people are never sure if it is ur eyes or not. The green colorblends are my most favourite as it goes well with my complexion. and damnn do i look sexy in them. grin

Spikedcylinder maybe ur friend was wearing the crazy stripes, they are new and in vogue now, but really scary.

i wear contacts for about 3 yrs now not too sure because ive gotten used to them so much i am a person that likes to play sports and i couldnt stand wearing glasses so i asked my optometrist about contacts, she prescribed and ive been using them i tried the color ones for a while it was ok but i mostly use clear ones, and now recently im using some overnight ones that i can sleep in life is much easier if i can sleep with them instead of gettin up every morning and puttin them on, dont get me wrong sometimes i have to take them off because i also have allergies and it bothers a lot with the allergies but besides that its great and much better
