Can i use the disposable (one day) contact lenses for more that one day?

Question

How healthy is doing this - i'v been hearing people wear their disposable contact for about two weeks?

Answer 1

Pretty well all the 1 day lenses are the same as their 2 week lens, except for Focus 1day...

Focus/Freshlook 1 day lenses are the only ones that are of a different material than their 2 week lens and are much more flimsy, therefore not lasting as long.

The Acuvue, Biomedics, Soflens, proclear, are all the identical lens to their 2 week version.

So, if they are stored in disinfecting solution and cleaned like a 2 week lens, they will last.

Answer 2

if its good for one day...just wear it for one day...if you dont follow instructions your eyes may be at risk..

Answer 3

It all depends on the number of hours in the day u use them.  I have two weeks disposables, and I use them up to one month, because I don't use them everyday.  I suppose u can get rid of yours when u start to fill the irritation.  Once u begin to feel it uncomfortable, it's time to throw them away.

Answer 4

My optician told me yesterday that disposable one day lenses can only be worn once. They are not to be reused at all.

Answer 5

yes I think you can. I was told by the eye Dr that the disposables are really all the same just the instructions differ. The dailies may be thinner than the other ones. I am sure it will be fine I have ones that should be changed every two weeks and I wear them for months! When they bother me I put  new ones in. I have done this for years and there is no medical side effects I have seen nor has the Dr said my eyes were damaged.
