Hi all
Going on a stag do in two weeks time to Riga, Latvia and looking for some advice when in nightclubs and alcohol consumption whilst wearing contacts!
Any tips to ensure my eyes last the night ?
Just slightly worried that towards the end of a long day/ night they may fog up / become uncomfortable!
Things become a little less fun with KC!
Also any tips for the plane? Should I avoid wearing them whilst on the plane?

Re: Nightclubs. Stag do's etc
I'm going to Ibiza in August and tbh I'm planning to rely on glasses.
My vision isn't quite as good with them but there's less of the issues like the ones you mentioned! At the end of the day I'm not going to be sitting around reading much etc. so hopefully I'll struggle through okay. If you are determined to stick to the contacts (I know everyone's different, but) I would consider taking some eye drops along, or putting them in just before heading out in the evening.
I find a drop every 5 hours or so really helps. I use ones called Blink.

Thanks hopefully they wont cause too much of an issue. Normally my eyes feel a lot better when on holiday anyways - not sure why perhaps the cleaner air / less pollution plays a part

Only done it the once about 25 years ago. Went on a bit of a session and woke up the next day with a massive hang over but able to see clearly. No miracle cure found just forgot to take my RGP lenses out because i was wasted. DONT do it
