> I've wanted corrective eye surgery for several eons, and a few years ago I did quite a bit of research on the subject. But with my vision of -10 and -11, I'm not a qualifying candidate at this time. They do have a way of inserting contact lens-type things in your eyes, but I still haven't heard a lot about that method. Until something new comes along, I will continue to support the saline solution industry.

Yeah, I tend to agree. A family friend used to be an optician and was always very wary of advising people wanting to have that surgery. Being an average of -6 in each eye myself, I will also continue to use contacts.


> Well, I can, but it's not a good idea to sleep in contacts, and I try to be nice to my eyes -- most of the time.

Absolutely! They're the only pair you're ever going to get so take the best care of them that you can. Wearing hard lenses, as I do, means definitely don't wear them to sleep, unless you want them to weld themselves in.
