glasses owners/wearers

[rodfarva]

my prob with transitions is that they never get completely clear and they never get dark enough
pisses me off

[K74T]

I personally never had a problem with the transitions, and with it i never had to change glasses when leaving the car and going into the office, mines were polarised and provided good protection in midday sun.

x2!

I find that my transitions work great

my main problem right there... especially when driving

[eurogirl]

Go to Ferriera's and get a contacts test done and they'll give u a supply for a week ..


supastarr , tell me more about this maintaining contacts coz I does run through these things like crazy

sleep withthem is tht ok for your eyes ?

once you take them out an clean them everyday or every other day an leave them soakin for a day or so, they last longer. I use Hydraclear plus, an im allowed to sleep with them one or two nights. But im a wotless slacker, so i sleep whole week with them. If you sleep with contacts too long tho you eye will develop an irritation, an become supersensitive to light an become uncomfortable to wear. I've been there a couple times. I actually use one pair of lenses for a month with no difference or diminishin strength in the lenses

I use Bausch and Lombe , they are alot more comfortable for me
we talking about daily disposables ? Coz I use to work with some girls who wear a type tht u can wear for 3 days straight ?? I was confused about tht ..

I'm okay with not sleeping with them .. i love my eyes too much to torture them lol

[SUPAstarr]

Nah not daily disposables, these are more like bi weekly (up to six nights STRAIGHT!!!!), look some good info

once you're getting new lenses it's always good to get them retested. how long have you had these glasses / lenses? the AR coating and transitions tend to go bad after some time that's why they advise you to change them every two years. as for contact lenses they're a great investment, i have the acuvue oasys and they work great for me, you can wear these for longer periods of time (avg. 16 hrs), but it's advisable to wear shades when going outside......trust me on this.

[duchess]

one more thing..........it's NOT ADVISABLE to sleep with the contacts

[mitsu_chick941]

duchess,i do have to get my eyes retested............i find that the lens not doing the job right, still get eye aches in direct sunlight.

[duchess]

hottgyul, have you already ordered the new lenses? i normally get mines at value optical and i'm sure that they can help out your situation, being that it's the only pair you have. my mom got hers in a weeks time due to her only have one pair as well.

i'm no expert, but i'm sure that the headaches are due to coating being deteriorated, please go and get your new glasses the sooner the better in this case. the longer you wait the worse it can get. i've been wearing glasses for a long time so i have alot experience when it comes to this

[mitsu_chick941]

no i havent as yet, i also got my first pair at value optical.............goin weekend though.


thanks for the advice,duchess

[duchess]

Not all optical places in are the same.. Once had Optometrists today royally eff up some lenses I had done, even with the correct prescription. Had horrible headaches and spasm's in my eyes for about 2 weeks...

Only in Trinidad do you need to wait weeks for lenses.
Most places in the US/UK you can get it same day..I once got my lenses done with a new pair for frames in 1 hour in NY.

Locally I use Ferreira's, Talk to the manager and explain that you need it asap etc, and sometimes in 3 days you're organized.

....so you tryin to say u izza hoe orrrr?

[K74T]

[mitsu_chick941]

^^^^^




the eyes aches are worst than migraines.......it doesnt pass unless you go to sleep or keep your eyes shut for a long period.

[redmanjp]

transitions is a waste of money

invest in a tested sunglasses

You think so?
I personally never had a problem with the transitions, and with it i never had to change glasses when leaving the car and going into the office, mines were polarised and provided good protection in midday sun.

ah wonder if polarized glasses go be a problem when watching 3D movies

[crash dummy]

^^^^^and you REALLY expect me to take your advice?

Well that would be totally up to u. I dont EXPECT anything
U can take it or if u dont feel "safe or whatever" you can go to Optometrists /Ferriera's and spend your coil. To me it doesnt really matter what you do.
