Day One of My New RGP Lens- I Promptly Lose One of Them
By admin | September 8, 2008
Well.. I am having serious issues with new contacts. This is my first pair of RGP ( rigid gas permeable) lenses. When I left office I was a nervous wreck out of fear of losing them. Sure enough, I get home. put them in and about an hour later I think to myself- wow that left sure is comfortable. When I went to take out is was gone. I was BEYOND upset. They cost 165.00 each.
In my defense, the left wasn’t fitting that great and she is bringin in another and I had no idea it could pop out. If I had known I would have sat on med without moving for half an hour.
( I am to wear them for half hour+ each day , twice and increase times and build up to 8 hours over 2 weeks)
When I was not madly blinking to stop the itch vision was pretty good. I can’t see myself ever getting used to these. She did say people have rough time with hard contacts but this is ridiculous. I can’t take the stress.
I left panicked message on eye doctors voice mail - in case one of the lenses is somehow still in my eye but I think I would feel it. I hate this whole experience.
I will also note that I think I have an eye infection. Eyes are oozing and I want to scratch them out.
In a word. I am miserable.
