Re: [at-l] contact lenses on trail?

["Leslie Booher" <lwbooher@evansville.net>]

I wear extended wear contacts, have for years.  I have to take them out only
once a week.  One week, I clean them and leave them out overnight.  The next
week, I take them out one night and put new ones in the next morning.  I
always carry an extra pair.  And I plan to have new ones in my mail drops.
I've never had any trouble with them during a hike.  In fact, that's why I
got them: so that I could see where I'm putting my feet while I'm hiking.  I
used to wear bifocal glasses, and had to walk with my head down to see over
the reading section.  Now, my left contact is for distance, while the right
one is for reading.  Works amazingly well.  Leslie
