Are these suitable to leave in your eye through the day and night for the whole month or are these strictly leave in for the day, take out for night, put back in the next day.

  1. no, proclear lenses are not designed for 24hrs wearing.nite and day by ciba vision is for that.


  2. Proclear contact lenses are not approved or suitable to sleep in.  Take them out before you go to bed at night and put in the next morning.  Unfortunately Proclear contact lenses do not let enough oxygen through to your cornea to be safe to sleep in.

  3. No do not sleep in proclear contact. If you would like to sleep in contacts try __Focus Night & Day__. With these contacts you will be able to sleep in for thirty days without taking them out.

    If you sleep in a proclear contact you could get an infectionl.


  4. Ciba 'Night and Day', Bausch and Lomb 'Purevision', and Cooper Vision 'Biofinity' are the lenses you can sleep in for a month, they may have different names in the US though.

  5. Do not sleep an any contact lenses regardless of what an optometrist may say. Sleeping in your contacts will increase the risk of infection, ulcers and possibly can result in the loss of the eye/vision. You only get one pair of eyes in life. Do you want to risk it for a little convenience??

  6. That is strictly up to your dr. Some ppl can wear contact lenses for a month and not have any problems, but others will, depending on such factors as dry eye, bad lens habit, prone to infection or quick formation of protein on the lens.

    Ask your dr what she thinks, and that is the best advice you will get.
