best brand of contacts?

Question

what do you think the best brand out contacts for a 13 year old are? thanks

Answer 1

like prince said the one that fits , considering u r responsible

Answer 2

Acuvue and Biomedics are both good - used them when I was a teen

Try talking with your optometrist about trying a box of each of a few types. Could be more expensive, but might be worth it.

Answer 3

and the REAL answer is....

drumroll please....

...the one that fits. you'll have to have an optometrist (if you're in the US) or an optician (if you're in the UK) take measurements and look at different lenses on your eye to see what fits and what doesnt. eyes come in all different shapes and sizes, not just all different "prescriptions". (part of the contact lens "prescription" will specify the brand/size/shape/material/water content, etc etc)

that being said, our number one seller at our office right now for spherical wear is acuvue oasys. but just like i said above, not everyone fits in that lens. its got a pretty small diameter (14.0 mm), so anyone with a very large cornea wont fit. likewise it only comes in a STEEP (8.4) base curve as well, so anyone with a FLAT cornea wont fit in it, either.

some eye doctor needs to recommend a lens for you after they evaluate your eye and see what fits and what doesnt.

I have had very good luck with CIBA Vision Focus monthly lenses. They also have Focus toric lenses for people who have astigmatism. My lenses last me for about two months and I wear them every day. They're pretty darned durable too -- I've only torn one in nine years.

Answer 5

i think the best is acuvue 2. they feel comfortable and there good for up to a month for there disposables.

Answer 6

I use Acuvue 2 Advance and they are GREAT!!!!!!! You can't even feel them!
