They are like a godsend for me.

My biggest complaint about contacts though is that I have allergies to cats and dogs, and when I'm around them, my contacts will begin to stick to my eyelids when I blink, and then follow the lid up when I open my eyes. It is a really unpleasant experience, and you feel the contact a lot, and your vision goes wonky. In these scenarios, I switch to glasses.

Hey, thanks Hesla for posting that info about which solution I should use with the Night and Days. I have been using one of your non recommended solutions, crap!
If you have allergy problems... you should get a prescription for Zaditor or Patanol... two anti-allergies...., you can throw a drop in when you get up in the morning (about 20 minutes before you throw in your lenses) when you know you will be in a place with cats and dogs... that should alleviate any potential allergies for about 10 hrs afterwards.
