About This Video: In this video, Joseph J. Allen, OD FAAO from Doctor Eye Health reviews his favorite daily contact lenses or “dailies”. Daily disposable contact lenses are replaced every day and although more expensive up front, are generally considered the best contact lenses for eye health as well as the best contact lenses for dry eyes. If you are new to contacts and looking for the best contact lenses for beginners, then these should be at the top of your list too. As daily contact lenses are the best contacts for beginners because of how easy they are to use. As always, eye contacts carry a higher risk for infection (even dailies) and if you have any problems be sure to remove your contacts and contact your local eye care professional. Because you open a new lens every day with daily contact lenses vs monthly, you get a fresh new lens every time. If you are looking for the best contact lenses, this contact lens review should help.

Ever lost a contact lens somewhere? Where is the weirdest place you have found them?
Had to remove a Rgp lens due to dust particles. Just sat down at a booth at Applebee's and the lens was nowhere to be found after i popped it out.
Could you tell me if there is a soft lens in colors for astigmatism, a toric lens...thx!
Stuck to the side of a wine glass 😂
Stuck onto a light switch.
Ok, I know this is bad and I should not be wearing contacts while in the shower but I did and had a lense fall out while washing my face. The lense ended up sticking to the top of the shower head.

From MY present day self, I want to say thank you to your future self for at one point being the person who left this very useful comment 😂🙂
I just got the precision 1 contact lenses and they work amazing for me! I've been wearing contacts for a few years now but most of the brands i used in the past have always dried out my eyes, so I preferred glasses. Love wearing my contacts now.
That makes me so happy to hear! 👍👍👍
Will precision 1 come in multifocal?
@@DoctorEyeHealth - I've tried numerous monthly and daily contact lenses including Biofinity Energys that I'm doing a trial in now and the NEW BAUSCH & LOMB INFUSE (just launched mid-last year) are the most comfortable lenses I've worn so far. Low Modulus - and so they're flexible and soft - making them super comfy on the eyes but yet still easy to handle to insert in your eyes. Fabulous 134 Dk/t (oxygen permeability) and they were also designed to help tackle those with dry eyes. Of course it's not going to be a 100% fit for everyone. Night vision is also a bit crisper than a lot of other lenses - at least for me - because of the aspheric lens design....it reduces glare from lights. The other plus for me is that they are also a bit easier to remove at the end of the day versus Alcon Dailies Total. Plus Infuse has UV 2 protection. So in any case - another good option to try in the daily premium lens market....and I was glad my Optometrist was a bit aware of these newly launched lenses late last year and ordered trials for me.
Precision 1’s are great and comfortable, but they are not as sharp as other contacts.. I’ve worn them and I couldn’t really see 20/20 but I strongly recommend Dailies Total 1, they’re super comfortable with crisp and clear vision.
The challenge with Dailies Total for some folks is that their slippery texture can make them a wee bit more tricky to remove at the end of the day. I've read numerous folks having a bit of that challenge but ok for others.
@@Kenster-man So annoying, I tried them out and I was so mad at the end of the day having difficulty removing them. I never ordered them again. you seriously have to scoop your eyeball out to remove them multiple times, and it irritates your eye afterwards.
Have you ever worn Acuvue Oasys? Does BC matters?
For it's the opposite, I tried first dt1 toric and couldn't see. Blurry vision. After 2-3 days started getting better but still not happy with my vision. Precisoon1 toric much better vision from the first moment I put them in
I have been wearing soft contacts since they came out in the 70's and just recently switched from monthly wear with daily disinfection to daily wear disposables (Cooper My Day) and the difference is remarkable. My vision is much clearer than wearing glasses and I can wear them a full day without any discomfort. And the extra cost is worth not having to do the cleaning regimen and risking eye problems.
I have very dry eyes and its hard 2 get out do the make presicion 1 lenses in light blue so you can see to take them out and do they come in disposal please answer in commemts
Can you please answer me
Can’t wait until the precision and daily total lenses come out for astigmatism 😩
Me too. Daily Total seems amazing but without that astigmatism is a deal breaker.
Sarah I am not sure if I reading what you wrote correctly. But I wear daily’s for astigmatism.
@@neonluv40 i will clarify. I also cant wait for daily total for astigmatism. But without the astigmatism i cant even try it out.
"We also continue on plan with our manufacturing expansion, which will enable us to introduce new options for people with astigmatism, with a much anticipated launch of Dailies Total1 toric and Precision1 toric later this year." -Alcon's Q2 Earnings Call on August 19, 2020
This isn't true. My eye doctor just gave me dailies to try and I have astigmatism in both eyes. They are trial but they are dailies
Big benefit of Acuvue Oasys 1 Day for me is it’s available in a flatter base curve, unlike most other daily disposables from other brands.
OOh yes, that is true. Post LASIK?
@@DoctorEyeHealth No, not post-LASIK. Just born this way:)
@@DoctorEyeHealth So Dr. Joseph could you please advise me what I should wear for multifocal stigmatism in right eye. I would like to have a daily contact with a high water continent since those are the ones that fit better and are more comfortable.
My mom found her lens in the soup we ate for dinner once XD
Lol
LOL one of my first pairs of RGPs became soup incredients in my first week of wear 🥴 about US$100 gone 🤦🏻♂️
I was wearing Acuvue Moist Toric Dailies for a few years now. Recently switched to the Precision 1 torics...wow. Huge difference. The Precision 1s daily I can wear 16 hours without issue - they feel natural. The Acuvues get tiring within 8 hours.
Hi, Joey. Love your videos. Can you do an episode about daily toric contact lenses for astigmatism? Also would be interested in your thoughts about "contact lense vacation" e.g taking a significant break from wearing lenses and the effect on eye health. I've been wearing lenses for 20 years, but have given my eyes a break and not worn them for two years, and my eyes feel so healthy.
Can you take your 1 day contacts out to take a nap and use them again the remainder of the day? Thanks for all the great info!
I want to know the same please doctor answer.
I personally take a nap with them on but make sure to use moisturizing drops for my eye before and after the nap....cause if I take them off I find it difficult to put it back on cause as he said its made mainly from water so it dry out and shrink in size if you take it out and leave it
My doctor said they're okay to leave in solution and put on later. They said contact lens companies just like to make money. They did however say not to wear them more than one day and also not to sleep in them or shower in them.
Hope that helps. I've done it and I've had no problems.
Same question. Can we remove it for taking a shower or a nap while storing in solution for the meantime .
@@harithaj9351 I'm not the doctor, but I've always been told it's fine to put them in solution for a short time and put them back in. And I've had no issues doing that. I've even just set them back in the liquid that comes in their packaging for a little while.
I started wearing Bosch and Lomb lens as my first ones , I have astigmatism and my eyepower is -1.75 in both the eyes , it was hard to put them on at first but it was better later on and it feels just fine
"I know 2020 is already half over with." You didn't need to hurt us like that Dr. Allen lmao
halfway through 2021 be like
2022 over here just going down hill
That is the most unique and beautiful shade of blue I've seen in blue eyes ❤
What are your thoughts on the Acuvue Moist 1 Day Lenses?
Doctor is it normal for the vision to be "slightly" blurrier upclose with nearsighted glasses? I got my new glasses, everything seems crisp and clear in intermediate and far distances (with ghosting double vision unfortunately which dosen't wanna go away ever 😞) but upclose it's a little blurrier, my previous glasses also had blurriness up close and I think I could see better without them while reading or doing other near work tasks.
Depends, are you over the age of 40 and have presbyopia? Do you have accommodative issues? Perhaps your glasses are just causing you do accommodate (use your focusing muscles) more - flexing the crystalline lens (which may cause a minification effect with the glasses) vs seeing without the glasses.
@@DoctorEyeHealth Lol I am 17 doctor, I didn't put in my pd measurement as it could leave my eyes in that spot for the rest of my journey with my glasses maybe that's causing issue Idk, I do have convergence insufficiency though for which I am doing vision therapy exercises (Brock String and Hart Chart) ones from past 3 weeks and I've noticed whole lot of improvement, but still it persists and hopefully would go away somehow ;)
I tried just about every lens we carry at our clinic and the precisions were the best! I wish we prescribed them more because they are amazing. The total 1’s are pretty good, but I can’t wear them as long before they dry out on me. I’m convinced it came down to the BC for my eyes.
Just started wearing contacts yesterday. The biotrue one day is now sold under Walmart's in house brand eureka. So far the only complaint I have is the learning curve of putting them in, would recommend
I'm using the two week Acuvue oasys for astigmatism but have just recently ordered the daily version. I'm very good about washing my hands and properly sanitizing my contacts, but I'm a bicycle mechanic and I feel no matter how clean I get my hands I can still have deposits in my fingerprints, from all sorts of grime and degreasers and lubricants. My contacts appear clean but I don't feel confident scrubbing them in my hands so daily contacts should lower the risk of contamination.
the contact stuck to the door knob joke is LMAO love your humor doc!
I use daily total lenses. I am going to buy Precision 1 too. I cannot see perfectly fine with my contact lenses that my eye doctor prescribed for me. He told me you cannot see 100% fine when wearing contact lenses as good as glasses. I really needed my contact lenses be as good as glasses. This is why I use them at parties only and use glasses when writing and working in front of PC. I hope one day we will be able to see 100% perfectly fine with contact lenses. Thanks for sharing this video. It was very educational:-)
I got contacts on friday and I thought it was great! But then realized when I tried to drive the next 2 days I can’t read upclose on my phone, or labels on products, nor can I read street or exit signs!
That's because you're a new wearer but trust me soon in like a week or 2 ur eyes get used to it and you can see more clearer when it comes to being up close to your phone and close surroundings
I'm just getting new contact lenses today! This is perfect timing!!
Thank you ! My experience was with Walmart optical. The Dr put them in and said the optician wold show me how to take them out and put them in . He said he didnt have time right now . I left thinking i could do it myself. Wrong. Wore them all night and went back to Walmart. Said id have to wait till dr. Came in . A week away . I was lucky to have a friend that puts her husband's in and out every day . Success. My next attempt was watching you video. I got them in first try .! Im confident i can get them out . Ill update you on getting them out ...
I tried the precision ones when I first started wearing contacts and hated them. then I switched to the acuvue daily moists and those were better, but it seemed like I had redness all the time while wearing them and they always dried out pretty bad at work. now I'm trying out the Bio True one day lenses. I hope these will do better.
Omg thanks doc great timing I’m getting my contacts todayyyyyy
Thank you for the recommendation of Dailies TOTAL1. I tried a couple of different daily lenses and TOTAL1 are really the most comfortable! These lens are my favorite now.
I use both the Dailies Total 1 and the Precision 1 contacts. The only annoyance I have is with how slippery the Total 1's are when I'm removing, but it's not too bad with practice. Between the two, I can't tell a difference in comfort or moisture. I wish they were cheaper, the reason I've got a supply of both is because the Total 1's were actually cheaper online due to how long they've been on the market. I look forward to the Precision 1's dropping in price over the next couple of years, because I find them easier to handle and I like that they have UV protection.
That is surprising to me that you got the Total 1s cheaper! Mind boggling. But I can tell you there are some new lenses coming very soon which you may like. Stay Tuned!
Thank you for making this so simple and easy to understand! Since wearing masks back in clinic, I need to make the switch to contacts but didn’t know where to start! Appreciate your video!!
Hi, how about about a video for daily contacts for astigmatism + dry eyes? I've been wearing Biotrue (and have dry eye disease + astigmatism), and they are trash (dry out fast, irritate my eyes, feels like a suction cup rather than contact). My conditions worsen severally and symptoms last for days
I wear Acuvue Moist Daily Multifocal contact lenses. I am using mid on R eye and low on L eye. It took me quite a while for my brain to adjust. They are pretty comfortable if I handle them minimally before getting them into my eyes.
Hi Doctor Allen. What is your nr. 1 tip for choosing a soft contact lens for a patient? Since K-readings are seemingly a poor indicator of which lens to choose, how do you usually make your choice?
Thanks a million!
Great video. I would like to hear your recommendation of lenses that you can wear more than a day (weekly, 2 weeks, monthly).
Can you do a video on ortho k lenses?! I’m just now hearing about these. Very interested
I have tried so many brands and I like Comfi the best, followed by Coopervision one you mentioned and also the Proclear ones. I found the Bausch and lomb ones hard to use and drying on my eyes. Focus Dailies ware very hard to remove
Anything wrong with Air Optiix? That's what I use and only order for one eye. My Dr knew I couldn't afford 2 different prescriptions so she kinda combined them. They are inexpensive compared to others. I have very dry eyes., even tried the eye duct things but didn't work. Yes, I drop mine and sometimes find it the next day 😂.
Thank you so much! I am switching to using daily contact lenses after using monthly contact lenses for 6 years.
I just got daily lenses, the samples were Precision 1 so that's what I continued with. Very happy as I barely notice I'm wearing them
Thank you doctor for valuable information.
Actually I had stye on my eyelid then I watched your video about stye and i followed your advice warm compression and got relief pain and reduced swelling within a day. Then I subscribed your channel and watched this video too.Thanks doctor.
God bless you.
thanks, Dr I'm a practitioner from the UK I agree with 100% in the classification of cls I use all the cls you mentioned except Alcon precision we don't have it here in UK yet, keep the good work take care Ali
I have the total 1s and they do go for $800 with a $260 rebate.
Right! They can get spendy, but they are some of the best overall for the eyes.
This is just the video I needed!! Why is it painful when I take the contacts out? I would go running for my eye drops as soon as I take them off.
I am confused by you saying that the Precision 1 have a "low modulus". I presume you are talking about Young's Modulus. Is that right? I thought that a lower Young's Modulus meant that it was more ductile (less stiff), and yet you say that they hold their shape better. Surely if they hold their shape better, they are stiffer and therefore must have a higher Young's Modulus. What am I failing to understand here?
So funny enough, I was really confused by that before I made this video, as a product engineer gave a presentation and they had it switched up. I asked them to confirm it for me...but it turns out they had it backward the whole time😅 SO you are correct. Thanks for catching that.
@@DoctorEyeHealth Thank you for taking the time to reply. I love your channel. Keep it up.
I was just considering going into daily contacts and this helped a lot!
Here in Malaysia, for a year supply of Dailies 1 the cost will be USD $274.6....and we don't even need precription to buy them.
I have a contact stuck under my lid tried what you said so i made appt.with eye doctor for Thursday to see if they can remove.
can someone help me with just 2-3 simple questions?
1 - whats the best Dailies for a heavy smoker like me?
1A - also, im an UberEats motorcycle rider, and ride the roads 10 hours a day, where there's a lot of smoke, dust, debris, etc. Whats the most durable Dailies for me with a high DK/T?
2 - whats the best type of eyedrop i can bring with me everyday in my small pocket (where we always keep coins and change) where i can apply drops every hour on the dot, based on the above conditions?
3 - also, i have a habit of washing out my eyes (like i stare into the shower head for a second or two, a few times) in the shower every morning. or cup a pool of water in my hands to fill up my eyes. like straight up, heated, tap water, thats chlorinated etc. cuz i'd be wearing contacts afterwards for the rest of the day. is this an actually bad habit?
i currently wear glasses (-850) and its incredibly painful on my ears, wearing a helmet (and the covid facemask) nonstop for 10 hours a day under the hot tropical sun, and incredibly inconvenient when i accidentally touch my glasses and it gets stained with oil or sweat, or it gets splashed with rain/ etc etc etc.
ive considered lasik/ prk/ smile, but lemme try dailies first - i kinda like the idea that theres a layer of plastic literally protecting my entire pupil/ iris anyways.
First time contact wearer here! Started 5 days ago and my Dr. gave me Precision 1 trial lenses but by the 3rd day I couldn't handle how blurry they would get toward the afternoon and my Dr. told me it was because they were drying out so she gave me Dailies Total 1 trial and these are so much better. Bad news is my insurance doesn't cover Dailies Total 1 and they cost +$900 at the office! Good thing I have a Costco membership cause they are much cheaper there, but make no mistake, they are still a pretty penny.
How is the Costco pricing? I’m doing contacts and I’m looking to take my prescription there
What is your professional opinion on rewetting drops, I think this would be helpful
Dr allen really encourage me to try contact lens for real.. i finally try daily contact with fresh kon alluring and i just ordered dailies total 1.
Tried the CV 54% hydrogen and DT1...vision at close range was better in the CV, but DT1 seemed slightly blurry though much more comfortable and no issue taking the out. My question is, is there any real difference between the low, med and high ADD ranges that DT1 and other contacts come in please?
So glad you mentioned the My Day contacts. Total 1 was not great for me so waiting to try out My Day. If they don’t feel as good as my monthlies then I am going back to Night and Day! Thank you for all your great advice.
Omg how we need to talk!!! I love my optometrist but I always feel rushed. I’m a new contact wearer and having issues. I try not to sound like I know it all, but listening to you I try to suggest thoughts ☹️not going over well! So here is my eye list my left eye is a+ 1.75 HGH +2.50. My right eye has a stigmatism
Culture axis 2.00 -.75 080.. Now these are the dailies Accu moist they are the latest that they have put into my possession. I started wearing contacts six months ago I love them when they work most of the time they don’t I have tried so many different things and so many different contacts. My latest was a bio Finity monthly I ask for dailies they said they do not carry them. I tried Bosch and Lomb ultra they said no way would not work with my eyes tried dailies something that you liked but I could not get a clear shot out of either I mostly my right I could not see any kind of distance. So at least with these new active you dailies I can see but not real close up and doesn’t work for me. And I’m really tired of feeling like I’m a bother some to my doctors do you have any suggestions
The ultimate review. Once you get to this video you don't need to search any more. Well done 👍 and thanks
Love Alcon lenses but really struggled with the Total 1's for some reason. At first they'd make my eyes feel like they were swimming in water which I found disconcerting, then after a few hours wear my eyes would be screaming 'take them out!!' lol as they became so dry 👀🤣. I still regularly use their Focus Dailies and Aqua Comfort Plus...both sooo comfortable but appreciate not as healthy for your eyes due to lower dkt. Can't wait for Precision to be launched in the UK!!!
My mom said no to wearing contacts.She says I'm not old enough to being wearing them and that I'm not responsible.What should I do? (im 13)
Wear glasses, there's virtually no risk to wearing glasses because you don't have to touch your eyes directly. Besides contacts can be pretty uncomfortable if you wear them too long.
Listen to your mother!
After 15+ years of wearing glasses, I finally tried contacts. My first-ever have been the Acuvue Moist dailies, and they have been a nightmare. They are flimsy and do not adhere to the eye consistently, with some repeatedly crumpling up and falling out in a blink yet a different one will adhere without issue. Once in, I do admit they are nice but it is not worth 25 frustrating minutes. I need an alternative. The information in your videos is awesome, thank you! I am going to try out the Precision 1s, turns out they are about the same price as the infuriatingly annoying Acuvue Moist dailies...
My optometrist said that they are moving away from the Acuvue Moist Dailies because there are better options out there for similar pricing or just a bit more. I've tried them too and they are not for me! Vision wasn't as clear as other contacts and they don't remain as comfortable and moist for all day wear. Also the Oxygen permeability (Dk/t) is fairly low - I prefer lenses with much higher Dk/t as I do wear lenses 16 hrs/day.
@@Kenster-man Do you think 90 Dk/t are good for contacts? Those are the ones I have right now (it’s easy vision but they also offer 171 dk/t).
I love dailies total one. I have very sensitive eyes and for the most part they are great. I still get times where they hurt. Probably from all the dust I'm around when working with horses. Also they cause me to have blurry vision up close like my eyes can't focus on what I'm looking at.
Dr. Allen, I would really appreciate a video on multifocal contacts, especially multifocal toric contacts Thanks!.
The question I have is this !
I'm moving to dailies because of complications with the 30 day version.
Is there a time frame to have the dailies in ???
Most consumers are up by 8:00am then go to sleep by 9:00 or 10:00pm !
That's about 12 or 13 hours with the dailies in...
Any thoughts from anyone ???
Great Review.. Your FROG POSTER is fantastic! Please share where we can acquire that...
Haha thank you!!! I got that small poster off of amazon of all places. My clinic also has a giant copy but I am not sure where they purchased it.
hey, just a heads up: i think you added a resident evil 2 remake walkthrough to the “contacts for beginners playlist” by mistake.
Alcon lenses or go home! I was glad to see them bring some of that tech to a cheaper price point with the Precision 1. Out of curiosity did your practice ever find a place in the market for the oasys transitions? It seemed pretty neat, but we just couldnt find a good application for them.
Any tips on how to get used to multifocal contacts? I am myopic, see fine at arms length, and need 1.25 readers. I am just so frustrated with glasses and do not like progressives. Any ideas?
Well there are several multiocal lens options on the market, not 1 seems to work best for everyone. Most work best with good lighting though, so make sure you are in a well lit area.
The oasis lens is blink stabilized and I find that it does not stay in place enough for someone with higher toric RX also they would float up and rub my limbus. I like ACP. I tried precision for fit I can’t wait to see them in toric
Will wearing power eye glasses cause eyes to become sunken and also dark circles to form?!
I use Acuvue daily. I've tried the a Dailies. I don't know why, I personally like wearing the Acuvue a little more. I haven't tried the Precision 1.
Would you say it’s worth switching from percisons to totals because if the higher oxygen permability?
Also, can people switch between brands without any issue or requirement to consult our eye doctors?
I use alcon dailies aqua comfort plus, they are very comfortable although sometimes my eyes dry out after just a few hours. I searched up their DK/T and noticed it was really low, coming in at a 26. Not sure if that effects eyes too much as its a daily contact.
Thankfully they are above the low 24 dk. Minimum.
2 years late but if that's happening to you, it's because you're not blinking enough
Please go over contact lenses for people with high prescriptions. I have 8+ and a 9+ and want to know the best for me too. Can't normally get dailies that high.
Agreed the DT1 multifocal lenses are Ace, comfy And superb optics.
Congratulations on reaching 200,000 subscribers Doctor!!!
Due to their healthy nature....do u think eventually ALL disposable soft lenses will be single use only!? What do you think Dr.A?
It is definitely the way the market is moving. But I imagine monthly lenses will continue to hold a place for overnight wear- at least as a therapy for eye conditions.
Alcon Dailies T1 multifocal really are the most comfy for dry sensitive eyes. But boy are they hard to see if inside out.
And are you referring to bandage lenses?
Would you say it's worth it to pay that extra bit and get the MyDay or save some money and go with the Clarity1🤔
I've been wearing contact lenses for 28 years. I tried the coopervision 54% hydrogels (BC 8.4) and the daily total1 lenses (BC 8.5)... I have GPC and for whatever reason the coopervision lenses caused a mild dull pain after a couple hours.. Daily total 1 definitely won between the 2.. however I cant afford them, so I went back to air optix night and day (BC 8.6).. they are still more comfortable than the coopervision daily hydrogels. Although I know switching to dailies would be better for my GPC. not sure if it had to do with the BC because I'm 8.6 and I believe they were 8.4.. at same time why would my eye doctor give me the wrong BC???? My eye doctor of over 30 years retired and finding a new eye doctor that I trust hasn't happened yet and I'm not going back to this last one.
You have been wearing contact lens for 28 yr???? that is so long. do you have any eye disease or irritation. Can i ask how long do you normally wear them . Do you wear occasionally??? or every day??
@@s__bang1894 yes, GPC. Contacts are my primary eyewear, but I do wear my glasses as well.
I hope i can wear contacts lens so long time like you. I am wearing contacts mainly and my glassess only at home. I can't go out with glasses cuz i look so weird...
@@samanthaharr9927 how long do you normally wear your contacts? I wear early in the morning until i go to bed, take them off. Am i wearing too long?????????
@@s__bang1894 I am not an ophthalmologist. I wear morning til night when I do wear them, but I'm trying to use glasses more often. On occasion I will take a 7 day break from contacts. My issue with glasses is periphery and I don't feel safe driving and also fear that if they get knocked off my face in public, I will be rendered handicapped (its happened and its scary trying to navigate when impaired) so for me thats why I have chosen contacts as primary eyewear. Glasses are healthier and you should definitely try to wear them more than contacts.
Precision only comes in 8.3. I'm currently wearing cooper vision biofinity 8.6. will I be able to wear the precision?
The Astigmatism in my right eye is to bad for daily soft lenses. However, I'm in the Coopervision Clariti toric monthlies which work great for me! I am just thankful I can get soft lenses in my prescription. I'ts true what you say about the lack of blue tint in them. But they have UV protection and I rarely drop my lenses so yeah :) My previous lenses had the blue tint though.
There is research for lens regeneration. Is that coming along well? That seems like a better option than surgery with fake lens that are 20x more opaque and less flexible.
Hey doc! Could you please make a video on ICL surgery?
Congrats on 200k subs! Well deserved, keep up the good work!
Hello, I have nighttime contacts so i sleep in them everyday. They feel great although some days are clearer than other days. Some days when I take my contacts out, i have blurry vision. On other days, when i take out my contacts my vision would be really clear. I don't know why thats happening. How am i suppose to sleep with contacts in? Should I sleep on my side or back?
Thank you!
even if they are night time contact, if you can take them out before bed... definitely do so. I always fall asleep without warning so I'm guilty of doing this and I have a whole extra eye condition from doing so called GPC, it didn't matter that I had night time ones. Its not going to matter how you sleep regardless. Try to take them out before bed as much as possible. And if youre going to sleep in them youre going to have to make sure you clean them really well. I soak mine in supraclens.. and if I'm out of that I soak in Clear Care.. Its a lot of maintenance to sleep in them and it hurts your eyes.
I have a question! Recently I went to my local Costco to try other lenses than the ones I have (Acuvue Oasys Daily with Astigmatism) which are ever so slightly uncomfortable. They suggested I try normal lenses without astigmatism (I have low astigmatism) and OH MY GOD. Night and day. Why is the astigmatism version of the lenses less comfortable?
My left eye has astigmatism but my eye doctor prescribed me with 1 day Acuvue Moist with Lacreon... she had me tried the Oasys for Astigmatism first but it was so uncomfortable... so she ended prescribing me the normal ones..
can you review the B&L INFUSE?
Doctor , could you please make a video on orthokeratology that does it really help in correcting myopia and also its pros and cons
Is aqua colour lens from lenskart good for eyes?
I know these aren't a daily lens but what do you think about Bausch and Lomb Ultra for dry eyes?
I’m not sure if you already tried them but I really didn’t like them. At first when inserting they are very comfortable and soft and barely notice they are there but very quickly they started to dry out in my eyes. Like an hour later. 3 hours max and I had to take them out. I tried for six months. They just didn’t work for me.
Hey doc I had a question. You mentioned in another video that you wore toric lenses before, but now you are wearing the dailies total 1 which is a spherical lense. How are you correcting your astigmatism? With increased sphere power?
im def buying. been using monthly one's since I started but can use something more comfortable
The pricey compromise of ceding to the Oasys w/ HydraLuxe is that they come for astigmatism, as well! Best option in the market, in terms of Dk/T and water %, coming also with the slightest light blue hue (of course none will ever compare to the dailies, but in the meantime of waiting for their astigmatism launch, it is what it is 🤷🏼♀️) 🥰💖🌸🙌🏼🌈
I am so happy that they finally came out for astigmatism. So i can finally get my hands on them.
What camera are you using? It's so clear!
Does the head ache by wearing contact lenses of high power about -5 D / -6 D ?
Please do reply...😀
Not specifically those powers, but if the powers you have are not right for your eyes, they can cause eye strain which can lead to headaches.
Your videos are awesome. I’m new to contacts and have been wearing Dailies Total 1 Multifocals for a little over a month. BONE DRY - I second that advice for getting these contacts off your eyes. If your fingers are even just a little damp, it will be super hard to get the contacts off. So great to hear that Dailies Total 1 will be releasing an ASTIGMATISM version. Do you know if that is expected to be available in their MULTIFOCAL lenses? Also, with the MULTIFOCAL lenses, is it normal that I need to move my phone about 12 inches away from my eyes to read it? I have a mild astigmatism, so perhaps that’s causing an issue, but being so new to contacts, I am not sure what’s appropriate. My contact lens fitter said she needed to compromise distance and reading to get the right prescription for me (presumably due to my mild astigmatism). Your videos are a lot of fun to watch, and I always come away feeling like I learned something valuable. Keep up the great work!
Hey Thanks so much for the kind words Scott! Glad you are enjoying the vids. I am not sure if they plan for a multifocal astigmatism daily total 1, but if the astigmatism is mild enough it may not matter. Multifocals are a tough one to fit, always use in good lighting. That should help you see better up close.
Doctor Eye Health thanks for your reply. Both points are helpful. Much appreciated!
Can you please do video about monthly contact lenses? retinal vein occlusions & recommended eye drops
Hi! New contact lens wearer here. The Alcon Dailies Total have been mentioned as really good in this video, but what about the Alcon Dailies Aqua Comfort Plus?
Do some people just not suit contact lenses. I've tried a couple and even though my vision is ok, it's still not perfect. I do have a certain level of astigmatism and get toric lenses so maybe that's the reason.
Sometimes vision in contacts will not be quite as clear as with glasses. But usually most can get by wearing contacts still even in this case. Have you spoken to your eye Doctor about your concerns?
I have Dailie total 1 at home. The prescription is right but how come it’s not as clear as my glasses once I put them on?
Awesome video as always ! I like the monthly b&l ultra and will have the biotrue week as the infuse is not available at my store :( how do they compare ?
Is there a contact that comes in -7.75?
Plenty. Off the top of my head, I believe all if the following do (and likely many more):
Total 1
Precision 1
Avucue Moist and Oasys
Biotrue
Thank you for your post! I'm curious. I have GPC and issues w/ preservatives. Do you feel like dailies are an option? I've always wanted to try them, but I worry about the solution that they're stored in...
