Hoorah for the hard-contact-lensed folk! Hard contacts are supposed to be healthier for the eyes after one gets used to them. They are also extraordinarily easy to pop in and out, there is no taboo about letting them get dry, and they can act as a brace to slow down change in vision. Plus, people sometimes will ask me what that thing on my eye is. The only drawback is the PAIN LIKE EVIL if the least speck of dust gets behind them.
