Contact Lenses? Cost?

[Manhattan]

No probs at all

I put my contacts (or 'eyes' as i call them!) in first thing in the morning, and take them out right before bed time. I just cant see without them..lol!

I have considered surgery, but im too much of a wuss

i have just got contacts and i had to get so special ones as i have astigmatism and my eyes reacted to the normal ones- they work out $70 per eye for 3 months supply- so $140 every 3 months. The ones i have are monthly ones, but you cant wear them 24 hours a day, so i take them out to sleep.
love them!!!
looked into eyes surgery as well- its about $2K per eye
still considering it one day

my contacts need to be replaced every yr but i found them to be better than the disposables. even thou i have astigmatism in one eye, but i found the speciality lenses to be uncomfortable. before i got mine, i was given a few to try & see which i preferred, mebbe ask about that?

ive been considering surgery too, but heard you should hold out till late twenties as the eyes are still growing. Also dont forget, prescription can alter after giving birth too.

i hate my glasses (had them since grade3) but without them im blind im hoping none of my kids will have to go thru it like me...

Thanks for the help!!!
