Update on Acuvue Advance Plus
Finally! Managed to get sometime to blog again! I've been caught up with assignments and emceeing event. Three emcee-ing in one week + classes and other events + assignment due! I didn't even have time to prepare.
I am here to update you on my trial for the New Acuvue Advance Plus Bi-weekly Contact Lenses. You can check out the launch blog post here.
I picked the best consultation and collection place on earth! I chose to have it at Look Good Optics in Bayu Tinggi Klang. This guy (forgot the name) he is a certify specialist, I know because of his certs hung behind his counter. He is one very nice eye doctor!
He gave me a full eye check up which includes me finding out that I have a very curvy/steep eye balls! I should be wearing a contact lenses with a Base Curve of 8.3 for a better fit for my eyes. Commonly most contact lenses are made with BC 8.6/8.7 as this is the general public's BC. I am special case :D!
The eye doctor explained to me every single details and I freaking asked loads of questions.
So I got one pair of trial lenses and wore them faithfully for the entire 2 weeks. I'm like a crazy mad woman stretch the lens to their maximum capacity, I'm so evil that they hardly get much rest to soak comfortably in the solutions.
Usually I wakes up at 5.30am and prepare for Uni. Rush Rush Rush....
The contacts are easily wore and remove throughout the 2 weeks.
8am-8pm classes + events + lepaking with friends + catnap on the table in Uni + some sports.
If you think that's it, you're wrong.
8pm onwards events + date nights + assignments craze rush!
I usually sleep about 12am. Of course not all the time I wear my contacts till 12am.
In general, I would say that I wear my contacts on average for at least 11 hours daily.
For one and half weeks, the contacts have served me very well! It felt really comfortable like I had perfect eyes without needing to wear any lenses.
It only started to feel a bit dry after about 10-11 days of full comfort but the dry-ness only kicks in after about 9 hours of wearing (which means almost at the end of the day).
At the end of my last day of wearing them, I was pretty sad that I had to let them go already. :( It was a really good lens for long hours user like me. I guess I will just have to repurchase them because good quality lenses are important for the best of our eyes as we only have one pair of them.
