What contact lenses are best for people with dry eyes? (my current contacts feel like sand in my eyes)?

I use a C-Pap machine at night for Sleep Apnea which blows air into my face and makes my eyes dry. I need to try another type of contacts. I was using Acuvue 2 before my eyes got too dry to wear them. I tried prescription drops and it didn't help.

Discuss this with your optometrist. Proclear is one type of contact lens that is supposed to be good for dry eye patients. There are other contact lenses that work well for dry eye but proclear is the only one approved specifically for that purpose. Do you sleep in your lenses? It sounds like it would be best for you not to if you do.
Good luck Source(s): optometry school

you just need to keep applying drops to try and keep them lubricated

contact lenses dont differ
the C_pap is drying your eyes and you would need something more than the drops try using lubricating eye ointment you can get refresh P.M. its what the doctor prescribed for me because i sleep with my eyes slightly open so they dry very fast i think the machine is doing the same thing to your eyes
so you can apply the ointment before you sleep every night your eyes may feel a little sticky in the morning but that will go if you wash them with warm water then wear your lenses
