Can I wear daily disposable contact lenses?

Question

Hi,

I wear monthly disposable contacts, Im going camping for 2 weeks and think that dailies would be more suitable. Is there any reason I shouldnt switch for a while?

Thanks

Answer 1

Its more hygienic but the day and night ones give really bad eye infections.

Answer 2

Sounds like a good plan to me.  I would order them soon though.  Maybe your eye doctor can give you a free sample?!

Answer 3

None at all, except that they will of course be a little more expensive.

Answer 4

I recently just switched to daily contacts.  I love them!!  I would go for it!

Answer 5

most dailies only come in "median" base curves...so you'd have to be able to fit in a "median" base curve to switch to dailies.

Answer 6

As a lens, a daily disposable is perfect for situations like camping, however before getting a new lens (in this case a daily) your optician should see the lens in your eye. This is to ensure it fits correctly.

The only disadvantage of a daily lens to a monthly is that they cost slightly more; but the outcome is worth it. Go for it!

Answer 7

Yes, go for it. Ot would be a great idea and so much easier to manage in camping conditions. They are also really good if you go on holiday when you will be swimming alot but anyway, yeah it sounds great. Have fun.
