Freshlook Contacts drying out eyes!?

Does anyone have problems wearing Freshlook Colorblends?

When I wear my prescription ones, they seem to be ok for a little while and then I get eye pain and water mark like sensations in the eyes.

My eye dr said I dont really make tears and will need frequent rewetting drops.

Am I supposed to be changing the solution out every day? Because they accumulate lint in the case for some reason.

I also get this sensation with Hydraclear clear contacts, but not AS bad.

Anything else I can do? Constantly rewetting is getting old.

yes you should be using new solution every day. Never reuse old solution!!! It's just full of germs and isn't cleaning your lenses at all. Also, change your case every 3 months.

That wouldn't contribute to your dry eyes though. Some contact lenses are just going to be dry for you. You can try the newer ones like Biofinity, Acuvue Oasys, and Air Optix - those are made of a different material and could help your eyes feel better. Another option is hard lenses. Soft contacts are actually like little sponges in your eyes - they stay moist by using your tears. Hard lenses don't need moisture. Another option is punctal plugs, which are little corks put into your tear ducts so that the tears your eyes do make stay put a little longer.

You could also try using some different drops for dry eyes, like Systane. You can't use systane with contacts, but you can put it in at night after you take them out, and in the morning, then wait 15 minutes to put in your contacts. that might help with tear production.

Talk to your eye doctor about which option would work best for you.
