I wore day contacts and it wasn’t too bad. I think it’d be better than using the night contacts since I’ve sometimes been lazy and slept with the day contacts in and it wasn’t that comfortable. 

I wore day contacts for sports for years and only rarely had problems.   It’s kinda nice to know you’re able to take them out or put them in whenever you want. Up to you though!

I prefer day since theyre easier maintenance  8)

Heres the full press release. Pretty interesting read

Hope everyone is staying safe and social distancing!

Especially in areas like NYC,etc.  :o

Hopefully it dies down soon but I've heard it'll probably persist for a couple of months at least, likely until the end of the year

Does anyone here have any recommendations for a good eye clinic in upper Manhattan? My vision is slightly blurry and I want to get some new contacts, but my old clinic I went to shut down.

"More cases of COVID-19 are likely to be identified in the United States in the coming days, including more instances of community spread. It’s likely that at some point, widespread transmission of COVID-19 in the United States will occur. Widespread transmission of COVID-19 would translate into large numbers of people needing medical care at the same time. Schools, childcare centers, and workplaces, may experience more absenteeism. Mass gatherings may be sparsely attended or postponed. Public health and healthcare systems may become overloaded, with elevated rates of hospitalizations and deaths. Other critical infrastructure, such as law enforcement, emergency medical services, and sectors of the transportation industry may also be affected. Healthcare providers and hospitals may be overwhelmed. At this time, there is no vaccine to protect against COVID-19 and no medications approved to treat it. Nonpharmaceutical interventions would be the most important response strategy."

Scary! Stay safe and avoid large crowds, especially if you like in states like California or New York!


I'm in New York right now and the situation seems a little crazy! Everyone stay safe!
