Granted, I've been wearing contacts a lot longer than you, and I wear mine quite a bit more irresponsibly than you will (at first), but spending $350 a year on contacts is like spending $3,500 a year on birth control. In my opinion. Also, I think the most I've ever spent on glasses was under$200. I wish I had spent more, because I hate my glasses and never wear them.

In short, you'll be fine.
I have no doubt I'll be fine.

But given the environment I work in, I'm not going to take any chances. New lenses every day.

We had a guy get some nasty eye infection. Basically had a worm burrow into his eye. Because he got some crap stuck under his lens. Fuck that noise. No worms are gonna make my eyeball home.

I'm super paranoid about my eyes. My eyes and my hands.


I'm know I'm probably overreacting. The cost of the lenses isn't a big deal. Just another thing, I guess. It's only $30 or so a month. Not a huge deal. Just frustrating, I guess.

Sorry to Bitch. Just scary to me, I guess.
