Default help, my contacts are stuck to my eyeballs after sailing ,..

Try the extended use version. You can buy them on the Net. Then you can
forget about them for weeks at a time.

I should mention I use Acuvue2 contacts from costco. There are meant
to be taken out each day. You can't even nap in them. They are
supposed to last 6 weeks but I get about 2 out of them before they're
too scratchy to wear. thanks everyone.

Well, for a rather alarming 45 minutes or so. Is this a common problem
for contact wearers? I was in a 9' pram right on the water. (salt
water). I could see better than ever for an hour or so. When I went to
take out my contacts later- they were stuck to my eyeballs. It took 45
min. of adding "instant tears" or something to pry them out. I called
the dr. but he denied everything of course. Any experience from salt
water sailors? Thanks and carry on.
