Re: Swimming pool vision..
arghhhhhhhhhh I hate this lens
9 hours today, great you might think, but every day it's still a fight to get it in, takes several attempts, but I guess what matters is that I DO get it in even if I don't like it and have to have a scream. The 'moving text' problem is getting easier so the brain/muscles must be adjusting although everything else still doesn't look quite 'normal'. What isn't changing one bit its the 'I have a lump of plastic on my eye' sensation, I am conscious of it constantly which gets me down, I count the minutes down to taking it out. Then when I take it out it feels like my cornea 'springs' into a different shape and feels really weird for 10 mins.

Re: Swimming pool vision..
I hereby award myself Moron of the Week Award - I put the lens in and are walking around the kitchen thinking Oo this feels amazingly comfortable and there's no distortion maybe I'm adjusting. Shut the other eye, it's a complete blur and realise the lens wasn't in! It had touched the cornea but come out again but I'd deluded myself into thinking it was in..

Re: Swimming pool vision..
when I close my good eye and look out of my new lens eye reading is difficult, the text is somewhat hazy, yet on the Snellen chart looking at a single letter or 4 letters in a line where I can concentrate on each letter it yielded a good result, but that doesn't translate to reading a paragraph. Ok, you could say well normally you would use both eyes but I'm used to using just one eye. If there were a problem with my good eye, using this eye alone wouldn't be much good for reading text. I'm confused
