I would take them out after the day then put them in a contacts case (that the eye doctor gave me for some reason) filled with a multi-purpose eye contact solution.

They are dailies so I don't know.

  1. No, if you wish to have contact lenses that you store overnight, you need to be switched from dailies into a monthly lens.  Daily lenses are not made to withstand more than one day of wear.


  2. You could, but it's not a good idea. There's a reason they only make them for one day.

  3. Yes.  Call the eye doctor and ask - contacts are good for 7 days, some for 30 days.  Depends on the contacts.  

  4. If you are cleaning them well  & not sleeping in them, you should be OK.  I have a patient who could make them last for almost a week. You just want to make sure you carry an extra set with you, in case  they get stretched out of shape & rub out of your eye.
