Hey everyone, I’ve been struggling with contact lenses lately. I work in IT, so I’m staring at screens for at least 10–12 hours a day. My current lenses dry out super quickly, and by late afternoon it feels like I’ve got sand in my eyes. I’ve tried a couple of brands, but nothing really works long-term. Has anyone else had this issue? I’d really appreciate some real experiences or suggestions, because I’m getting tired of wasting money on boxes that end up in the drawer.

I totally get what you’re going through. I used to have the same problem, especially during those marathon coding sessions. One thing that helped me was switching to lenses that are made specifically for all-day wear and dryness reduction. I ended up finding a solid variety here: https://www.contactlens.com.au/ – they’ve got a decent selection of daily disposables and extended wear types. I tested a couple and honestly the difference was night and day. My eyes felt less strained, and I wasn’t constantly reaching for eye drops. Maybe give it a go, at least you can explore different brands without running around from store to store.

Awesome, thanks mate! I’ll check it out and hopefully stop feeling like I’ve got sandpaper eyes every afternoon.
