man these things suck. they're good for a couple days, but then they jsut get irritating and shit, why ca'nt they make these things with like water pouches in them, that slowly leak into your eyes over time and keep you moist. fuck contacts, although they have plenty of advantages. i jsut hate 'protein' build up and shit.

Harvested love only comes after rain
Even though it brings overwhelming strain
It falls from all skies so I can't complain
Without it, our growth would not be the same
Most people like to have someone to blame
But it falls randomly, not taking aim
It makes up one half of the yin and yang
Without the water, you can't have the flame
Without the water, you can't have the flame
Some are content holding ground in their game
But when my soul steps to exit this frame
I will be reincarnated as

Rain
Everyone wants to get out of the rain
Wants to be free, wants to see no more pan
We're guaranteed that the season will change
'Till then, I'm keeping sunshine on my brain
When the drops hit my head they leave a stain
Everyone wants to get out of the rain
We cannot avoid nature's bleeding vein
But I smile while it trickles down the drain

Rain
Harvested thought only comes after rain
Artists may talk and give it different names
When they appear wet, they may feel ashamed
So they don't walk but instead take the train

While the world evolves, they stand and turn lame
Storm is prerequisite to mental gain

Towering, gray faces laugh so deranged
One day we all will break free from their chains
One day we all will break free from their chains

leaving contacts in over night isnt smart even if they are day and nights. they take a lot of moisture out of your eyes. just take them out when you sleep then in the morning put them in and its like new eyes!

that's wierd that you can ski without goggles when you wear your contacts. If anything my eyes are more sensitive to light when i have my contacts in, plus having my eyes blasted with wind when they're in is really painful. i just carry drops with me so if my eyes are feeling dry, I just put in the drops and they're all good.

I used to never take my contacts out (i like left them in a month without taking them out) and now I have permanant damage to my retinas because your eyes cant get enough oxygen with contacts in. Its like you suffocate your eyes. I might need a transplant when I get older. Oh, and by the way, day/night contacts are almost the same thing. They are just a tiny bit more gas permeable.

I dont have a problem with em cept when i first got them. Takes getting used to. And theyre better than glasses cause you have a much wider range of vision and you and nobody else will notice them.

I had glasses for about 3 years, and then i finally got contacts because it was either contacts or recspecs for playing soccer and track. Recspecs just didnt do it for me. But yea, definitely take them out at night. There is no reason to leave them in. When you wake up they are all over your eyes and all foggy and shit. As a matter of fact i think im going to take mine out right now

you can not hike in the rain with glasses on. it is also nearly impossible to put your contacts in after you have started hiking and it is still raining and the wind is blowing like no other. and the final straw was when one contact was one perscription and the other was different.

Wtf are you talking about? How does the light reflect of your contacts? It still fucking hurts your eyes when you get strong ass sun bouncing off shiny wet snow to turn into glare level 97. glare level 97 uses its might penis to penetrate your level 6 vision and fuck you. you lose.
