I have worn soft contact lenses for playing squash for over 20 years, and 40 years ago I used to wear hard contact lenses for football. I am not a fan of long wear, or monthly disposable. I like a clean fresh daily wear, set of lenses. You do need to be very careful about cleanliness when using them, get regular check ups etc. I have a monthly direct debit contract, which includes all lenses, full annual eye test/check up and attention free of charge if evey I need it. |
That is very true, though the idea still goes against my way of thinking - as for sport, I normally just take glasses etc off when playing footy etc, though I used to be able to read monitors etc with glasses off, if I was gonna take these off now i'd have to do something else for a while before I was going to read the screen again (though I can see it first thing when I've been asleep) - best thing about these is the anti-glare, as I use a CRT at work it helps.
Personally, I still wouldn't wear contacts though.

(Plus, I'd say 13 was a tad too young)

they might be for cosmetic or appearance reasons tho |
Appearance reasons? Please elaborate?
