My wife did it for years. She'd make a years supply last 3.

Get good contacts?

My first set was horrible too, so I changed.

Now I wouldn't go without them.

cough cough....

Nothing like introducing a bunch of bacteria to the eyes...

Playing with poison...... but likely, nothing will happen. But when it does you will be sorry (aka. super infections such as Acanthomeba or Fusilium).

Fotze has had so many viruses, infections and nasty puss diseases over the years that his body has built up quite the impressive defense system. I think he'll be fine.

isn't a new set of disposable contacts like $20?

stop being such a cheapass

edit: you can buy here: http://www.clearlycontacts.ca

they deliver overnight and are about 30-50% cheaper than an optometrist.

You could get bumps under your eye lid and a cyst underneath your eye lid take it from me don't do it.

i think there is excess caution being expressed here. if the lenses are still in the original sealed packet they should still be sterile. When you open the packet, the solution should still be clear. If a microbe were to contaminate the lense packet, it would grow and make the solution cloudy. So you can judge for yourself. If you want to be extra cautious, wash the lenses before using them. The peroxide based cleaners will kill anything that potentially (unlikely) contaminated the package
