I had them in high school, but they turned the whites of my eyes into the reds of my eyes and I looked a bit like a monster. So I stopped wearing them. But as that was close to eight years ago, my eye doctor and I both thought that "breathable" contact lens technology may have progressed enough to enable me to wear contacts... I'm keeping my fingers crossed! So far, so good.
In an effort to aid my eyes, we decided that a chemical based cleaning system was probably not a good way to go, and I got this awesome UV/ultrasound cleaner. The UV kills off any bacteria on the contacts and the ultrasound will shake any dust/particles off of the contacts. Really cool, right? The chemist in me had to have this as soon as I heard about it! (Although the chemist in me also shies away from the thing whenever it is on... That purple color throws off so many cancer warning signs in my head!)

My husband John is a chemist too...he likes talking about chemical stuff :) Good luck with the contacts!
That is so cool. I have worn contacts for years and I really hope to get laser surgery some day. I cant use the chemicaly stuff either. I use a peroxide bubbling system.
oooo. let me know how this turns out! i can't wear contacts either, as you might know...:)
Wow! You're starting your new job SOON. What's going on? Do you have training and stuff? I want a new post. :)
