Do hard contacts hurt?

Question

I'm getting contacts in abotu a month, but am getting the hard ones because they last longer and are cheaper (my fitting is already 250)

do hard contacts hurt, i kno you get used to them but ...tell me about them please :]

Answer 1

My husband has been wearing the hard ones (gas permeable)  for 2 years now and he loves them. The only thing is the solution is a bit more expensive!!!

Answer 2

Yes, they will hurt and/or feel uncomfortable at first.  Basically, you can feel them on your eye--and it feels just like something is in your eye.  I've heard it takes a few weeks to a few months to get used to them.
