New contact lenses?

Question

I just got contact lenses (acuvue, oasys) and the doctor told me to wear them for 4 hours then 6 hours then add two hours then another two hours until whenever I can wear them the whole day. I wore them for 4 hours then yesterday I wore them for 8 hours instead of 6 (whoops!). Should I wear them for 10 hours today? Or 8 hours? Or does it matter? Thanks

Answer 1

Doesn't matter...he's just giving you a formula to get used to wearing them...some people get comfortable faster than others. Sounds like you're doing great, so wear them whenever!

Answer 2

Doesn't really matter, if I was you I'd wear them for 10 hours. When I got mine I didn't follow that and it was fine. Just take them out earlier if they are a bit uncomfortable.
