Answer:

I wear contacts too. My friend tried wearing. However, she wore only once and is not wearing already. Her eyes got pretty dry and red. But mine doesn`t. In fact, I`ve been wearing contact lenses for years already and got no problem with it.
Guess it all depends on the individual ya.

Answer:

haha yeah man, yours isn't even high. mine's 500 too. the highest you can go is around 2k+

Answer:

hahax...
I'm 700+ per eye... With asti 200+++ each eye...
I managed to get a pair of permanent lenses for $200 nett(excluding solution).. N i have wore it for over 1.5yrs... (My optician says 1-1.5yrs).. Hoping to drag to 2 yrs....
If u do the calculation.. It's much worth it then disposable.. thou of cuz not as comfy... Coz disposable lenses cost freakin expensive esp if u have asti(I heard over 200 asti can't get disposable-my optician says that for my case)..
Of cuz it's up to you, For me i dun find it really uncomfy, n d caring part is still okay(i'm a lazi bum)... N by rite my lense is meant for 8hrs wear daily @ most.. but i usually go past that to 12 or even 16 hrs....

i wear daily disposables cause my mom knows I'm too lazy (and can't be bothered) to wash them.

As compared to spectacles, contacts are more inconvenient. Please be aware of the dangers if you forget to take them out.

it really depends on the dryness of your eyes and at times , the surroundings . there're pros and cons comparing specs and contacts .
but contacts can get uncomfortable at times , unlike specs .
