Eg if you take it to extremes the periphery of the lens will sit under your lids better and probably stay in - at the expense of reduced oxygen availability at the edge of your cornea - depending on your script.

You might have to got to two weekly disposables? More parameters to play with.

Just ask your eye care person first :)
My scrip is out and going to see the Doc this week. I am on daily disposables now are you suggesting weekly?

I have used these for a couple of years and am really happy with them. http://www.seaspecs.com/html/specifications.html . I don't need a distance prescription (yet) but have noted that they do prescriptions as well. I told my optometrist about these when she asked if I wore sunglasses, she now wears them (didn't know she surfed).
Cheers, BDW

...will get you the initials of a surf company that also make a rashie with inbuilt loop for hat and goggle savers. Or, you could get any rashie with a looped - care instructions - label on the inside neck. Thanks for the monofilament idea.

perhaps don't use eye drops containing preservatives?

see an optometrist and/or/ opthamologist for specialist advice so as to avoid ocular rebound conjestion, conjunctivital hyperaemia - and the like
