Pros: They are contacts.

Cons: They give me blurry vision due to opaque spots.

I am so glad to read reviews form others that these do in fact leave opaque spots on the lenses that do not come off. Some times this happened the first day of wear. What a waste of money, these are nor cheap and something should be done to improve these contacts because right now they are a joke. I am so fed up with this brand, I feel like they are stealing from me.

Pros: None

Cons: Very disappointed

I have used the Acuvue 2 lens for several years and liked them a lot. My Dr suggested I switch to the Advance and these are terrible. I have gone through them twice as fast. This last set I wore for less than 24 hours and already getting blurry spots. NEVER have I been able to wear them 2 weeks as I used to be able to do with Acuvue 2. I am am going back to the less expensive model. They work much better.

Pros: None

Cons: Uncomfortable.

Worst contacts I ever worn. Uncomfortable, even when wearing a brand new pair. Will never buy this brand again and will do my own research and not take an eye doctor's word for it (they're obviously getting kickbacks).

Pros: Comfortable for the first few days

Cons: not last, uncomfortable

I have been wearing contact lenses more than 10 years and I tried to use Acuvue Advance around a year for the good price. But the quality was unstable constantly. I suppose I can use each lens for 2 weeks time or at least 1 week. But a few of them just couldn't least for a hour or a day. I will not use this one anymore as I would rather pay a bit more for more comfortable lenses.

Pros: comfortable for about 3 days

Cons: blurry, hard to clean, gritty, irritating

I have worn these contact lenses the whole three years I have needed them. I wear 2 weeklys so should last me 3 months per box, yet the past 4 months, I have had 3 sets because they havent lasted more than 3 days each. They get blurry, opague marks on them that do not clean, and lots of deposits. I used to love these lenses, now I really want to change but can't really afford different ones. I'm so annoyed!!!! As a student I cant afford ﾣ90 every 3 months!!!

Pros: Soft like silk

Cons: Blurry vision after 15 minutes

I started wearing contacts over 20 years ago. I stopped 10 years ago when I had my first child. Now that I have had my last child I have the time again for contacts. I went for a contact exam and they offered Softmed 55's. By noon after putting them in at 7am they were horribly dry and scratchy, so back to switch out. Then tried Avaira's , worked great but wouldn't come out of my eyes. Finally optometrist gave me Acuvue Oasys. I thought great no more dry eyes. Well that's right just blurry vision after 15 minutes and I have to wear my glasses to read. Horrible experience. Next they want me to try Air Optix or Proclear, both extremely expensive. Hope something works out soon....

Pros: moist

Cons: don't last, uncomfortable

I bought these lenses a couple of weeks ago. I can only wear these lenses for about 2 hours then they get foggy with film. My eyes end up getting sore and straining for the rest of the day.

Pros: Comfortable for the first few days

Cons: scratchy feeling in the eyes after a week

I liked these lenses for the first week, they feel more comfortable when you blink compared to Acuvue 2s. But after a week or so, the lenses start to feel scratchy in your eye.. you can feel the lens in there and they're no longer comfortable. I also noticed after about 4 days of use, the shape of the lens changed and became very irregular, not sure why this is. It never happened with my old lenses. Also, the optometrist told me I have to use Optifree solution with these lenses and no other brand should be used. This solution costs $10 a bottle. I'm glad I got an RX for the regular Acuvue 2's because I'll be ordering those instead.

Pros: Relatively high oxygen permeability

Cons: Difficult to clean

Last year I was wearing Acuvue Advance +3.25 and +1.75 lenses (monovision) and there was no problem. I would highly recommend them. This year my prescription changed to +3.50 and +2.00. The sample given to me seemed to be fine so I obtained a one-year supply. Now my vision is constantly blurry while wearing the lenses because there is a central semi-opaque spot on the lens that accumulates eye makeup and the makeup is almost impossible to remove from that spot. If I go back to the lenses from my previous prescription, this problem does not occur. Have the lenses changed?

Pros: thin

Cons: irritated dry eyes, headaches, muddled vision

I wore Focus 1-2 week lenses from the time I got contacts (at age 12) and for a about a decade after. I loved them, or at least had zero complaints about them. And my eyes were always is pristine health at every optometrist exam. A few years ago my optometrist told me I was wearing a dinosaur for contact lenses and that perhaps it was time to upgrade to a newer technology. I switched to Acuvue and have tried both Advance and Oasys. The past few years I have been going into the eye doctor thinking something is wrong with my eyes. They're irritated, dry, scratchy, I have terrible headaches, and it feels like my contacts are thick and gooey. My vision is terrible despite the doctor saying it hasn't changes in years! It finally clicked that maybe my eyes aren't the problem and my contacts are! I will be switching my lenses this week and will never look back.

Pros: immensely comfortable, best ever had

Cons: protein deposits after a few days, blurred vision

Im glad I read these reviews as I was wondering if i had an eye infection. It appears probably not. Been wearing contacts for 23 years, these particular ones for probably just over 2 years. i have very bad eyesight so cannot go without lenses. Dont want to wear glasses as theyre a bit embarrassing due to thickness, even with all the new technology! At first these were the best lenses Ive ever had, immensely comfortable, my saviour! But a year or so ago things started to change. Now my eyes sometimes get a bit mucusey, and bit runny, and then blurry. Ive now got real problems with protein deposits ruining my vision after only a few days wear. They wont clean off once they are there. This gives me eye strain and headaches. Have to keep rubbing my eyes. I thought it was mild infections I was getting (NEVER ever had an infection ever before) but i think its these lenses after reading these reviews!

Pros: there so soft you dont even feel them

Cons: nothing really

you dont feel them all day

Pros: Can sleep in them

Cons: Don't work for everyone

I have worn the same kind of lenses for the past 10 years or so but have been having more and more trouble with falling asleep before I take them out. Since my eyes have been getting really irritated by this (contacts cut off the oxygen to the eye), my doctor gave me a sample pair of the oasys ones. I have tried ones you could sleep in before and had many of the same issues I saw here- basically it looks like pinkeye or at the least, extremely irritated, bloodshot eyes, but if you're having this and you keep changing your contacts and it's not better then you are most likely ALLERGIC TO THE CONTACT ITSELF! These "better" contacts that allow for more air-flow do so because they are made of silicone, but your eye can be allergic to it and give these symptoms. You need to go back to your eye dr and get a new kind (and if they actually charge you for finding a new kind, esp. due to an allergic reaction, you really need to find a new dr!) I'm trying the oasys for a few more days, but am still having periods of very blurry/cloudy vision so I'm not sure how much longer I'll last! Just wanted to share about the allergies as it was something I nor my dr thought of at first, but knowing that info has made a world of difference!

Pros: none

Cons: irritated my right eye

on Thursday my optometrist gave me a trial set of Acuvue Oasys to wear. On Friday they felt great for about half a day, then I started to get a small irritation in my right eye only. I removed them Friday night, and when I woke up on Saturday morning, my right eye was crusted with mucus. I didn't put the cause on the new lenses at that time. At noon on Sat I put a fresh set of lenses in and throughout the day my right eye was dry, and several times I had to blink blurriness away. I took them out 5 hrs later and my right eye keeps tearing up. Back to Acuvue 2's for me!

Pros: comfort is good

Cons: hard to wash once something gets on them

Pros: None

Cons: Gritty feeling in eyes, dried out

Started wearing Acuvue Advance in January of 2009. I had been wearing plain Acuvue for 12 years and LOVED them. They were being discontinued plus I had a bit of dry eye so I thought to give Advance a try. Advance felt like i had grit in my eyes the whole time. I could only wear the lenses for 4 days or so and then needed to start a new pair due to gritty awful feeling. I started wearing my glasses 80% of the time just because I couldn't stand the lenses. A friend of mine also tried Advance and she felt like she had sand/glass in her eyes and switched to Oaysis which she loves. After a year I gave up on Advance and just started wearing Acuvue 2. They are amazing! What a change!

Pros: Cost effective because you can where them for awhile

Cons: Scratchy eyes

I have been wearing these contacts for about 4 years and never had any problems until recently. About 3 months ago I got an eye infection which we thought was do to allergies. My eyes became very red,irritated,scratchy, and painful whenever I tried to wear my contacts. My doctor switched me to ones that you throw out everday which I loved. Last month I could not afford them so I switched back to my prior type and within a week my eyes were back to being irritated again. My dad wears the same kind and also started having issues about 2-3 months ago.

Pros: None

Cons: Blurred vision, headaches, itchy eyes

I have worn Acuvue 2 lenses for 10 years and decided I should step up the quality of lens after seeing progressively drier eyes. When I received my Acuvue Advanced, I had no problem with my left eye but the right eye felt no improvement, like there was no vision correction to the contact. I gave it a few hours and my vision got blurry. Thinking I had a problem with my eye, I placed the lens from my right eye into my left eye (different prescription but very close). My left eye was blurred, proving it was the contact. My opthamologist suggested I send them back to the online vendor and contact Johnson and Johnson about defective lenses. To date, VisionDirect has refunded all the money from the unopened boxes I sent back, I am still waiting for Johnson and Johnson to refund me for the opened boxes. For any of you that still have these contacts, go to J&Js website and find "money back guarantee" before 90 days is up. My dr gave me samples of Acuvue Oasys and I have worn them everyday for the past week and have YET to have the dryness I felt with the Acuvue 2. Too bad Acuvue doesn't have a quality lens in price between the Acuvue 2 and Oasys, but I think the extra money will be worth it.

Pros: Comfortable Very

Cons: Tearage

These are a great buy for the brand. They are not as good as Oasys, but if you cannot afford Oasys, it is just as good to wear them...I cant wear them for more than 10 hours. I believe allergies also, have alot to do with how the feel on my eyes as well.

Pros: Usually comfortable

Cons: Get dirty and blurry

I used Acuvue for 3 years with no problems... My doctor switched me to Acuvue Oasys for better comfort. With these lenses, the first few days I wear them, they get dirty and blur my vision within a few minutes. As I type this, one eye is so blurry I can barely see, despite having cleaned them 5 minutes ago. After wearing them for a few days, the blurriness stops happening (the contacts stop getting dirty?). When it first happened, I thought there was something wrong with my eyes! It is awful, but it is also a relief to know I'm not the only one having this issue.

Pros: none

Cons: Blurred vision, eye irritation, short wear time

I ahve worn contacts for years. Last year my doctor recommended Acuvue Advance lens. At first, they worked fine. I could wear them all day and change them every two weeks or so. Suddenly, they began to blur after only a day or so. I have tried everything to no avail. As quickly as I use what's left of my lens, I am switching to another brand. At a few days wearing, that won't be long.

Pros: comfortable for a few days

Cons: blurred vision, tear easily, protein deposit

I don't like these contacts at all. After only a few days I get blurred vision due to protein deposits. I used to wear Acuvue 2 but my doc wanted me to try these new advance ones. I tried changing solutions, rubbing them more in hope to clean them better but nothing helped. I even bought enzyme removal tablets which didn't help either.For five years I used Freshlook colorblends and then switched to Acuvue 2 which I liked a lot for their comfort.

Pros: Very comfortable. great vision

Cons: a little pricey for the astigmatism correcting lens

These are the most comfortable lens I have ever worn. They stay comfortable all day and my vision is very good. I would and have recommended these lens to my friends.

Pros: n/a

Cons: felt dry, couldn't wear all day, uncomfortable

I was an Acuvue wearer who was told I should switch to Acuvue Advance as they were better for the eyes. I never had problems with the plain old Acuvues and loved them, so I did not forsee any problems. I had nothing but with Acuvue Advance. I was never able to wear them all day. They always felt dry and uncomfortable. I suffered through a year of wearing them. At my next eye exam, I switched to Acuvue 2, and have been happy ever since. I had nothing but problems with the Advance and would never recommend them to anyone.

Pros: Comfortable, Inexpensive, High-tech, UV Protection

Cons: Can't think of anything

I just got contacts for the first time month ago. And my eye doctor gave me the O2 brand. And I didn't like it at all. They weren't comfortable, and just terrible. So I got acuvue advance with hydraclear, and I felt amazing. I feel like there's absolutely nothing in my eye!!! Now my whole family has these. ABSOULULY FANTASTIC!!!!!

Pros: They are astigmatism contacts, which are hard to find

Cons: uncomfortable, tear easily, expensive, foggy

These contacts are not worth the expense. They are uncomfortable and tear extremly easily, and they shift around and won't stay put. They are a pain to insert and they flop all around on your finger. I really don't like these at all. I would not recommend them.

Pros: NONE

Cons: EVERYTHING

Blurry vision, goop in my eyes, and I have to replace them every 4 days! They're the worst lenses I've ever worn - and I'm a decades-long wearer. Don't buy them - ever!

Pros: I can say I have contacts

Cons: They fold over on most attempts and when in irritate my eye

They fold over on most attempts and when in irritate my eye. My Dr said these where the most popular and best contacts on the market. Ya, now I have to pay for another fitting to try a different lens, what a scam.

Pros: NONE

Cons: EVERYTHING

THESE CONTACTS ARE HORRIBLE COMPARED TO THE ACUVUE 2S. THEY ARE HARD TO APPLY, AND WITHIN ABOUT 2-3 DAYS MAKE MY VISION BLURRY AND WILL SOMETIMES CAUSE MY EYES TO WATER MORE THAN USUAL. DO NOT WASTE THE EXTRA MONEY.

Pros: None

Cons: Flimsy and overall bad

I have been wearing contacts for 18 years. This is my first tiem using this contact. I have had eye issues for the 5 months I've been using them. They are flimsy and do not keep their shape. I have eye goop, discharge and constant tearing with this contact. I thought these symptoms were due to eye rubbing, dirty hands, germs, etc but for the last 2 months I have been a complete neat/clean freak and the same response. I change the contacts every month, I do not sleep in them and clean them before and after waering them. I have also cleaned my case all to no avial. This product is not good!

Pros: Its feels fine and clear when you put them on in the morning

Cons: After a couple of hours, they tend to dry, redden the eyes

They are very average lenses. I thought the hydraclear would make some significant difference, but they were the same as the Acuvue 2 or regular Acuvues. After a long day of wear, they would get stuck to my eyes, and become uncomfortably dry. My eyes were slightly red by the end of the day, every day. I am looking now for better contacts that reduce dryness and allow more oxygen flow.

Pros: Feel Good

Cons: Rip/Tear Easily

I like how they feel when they're brand new, but they deteriorate too quickly. Sometimes I can't see anything wrong with them, but have to change because it hurts too much. Other times, the side rips or a peice is just missing. The middle will split also. They will sometimes last for 3 weeks, but rarely will they last the requisite 2.

Pros: comfortable at first

Cons: contact deteriorates

Although these contacts are initially very comfortable, they deteriorate before their two week wear time is up. Every single one I have worn has gotten "nicks" in the edges within about one week of putting them in, causing irritation and great discomfort. At first I thought I must have been damaging them myself, even though I have been wearing contacts for 25 years and have never damaged one before. After about the third or fourth pair I knew it was not me. It starts out small and barely visible and then gets bigger, so at first I kept wearing them thinking it must have just been allergies. Now, I have to change them before I make it to one week so therefore I will be paying twice as much for them as I should have if I was able to change them every two weeks. Obviously, I will not be getting these again after I have used them all.

Pros: comfortable at first

Cons: Became too itchy, toric didnt fit well

My optometrist attempted to fit me for toric lenses, and recommended acuvue advance because she said they had a great toric lens. I got a trial pair, and ended up leaving with spherical lenses because the toric didnt rotate correctly (i have a funky axis on my eye). By the end of the week, i found them itchy and uncomfortable during by the end of the day. I switched to Silicone hydrogel and they felt MUCH better (and the dr. said they were more healthy for my eyes).

Pros: Easy to insert

Cons: VERY blurry vision

My dr. recommended these contacts after I had been using Pro clear for about 2 years...Felt great initially, after a few hours of wear, vision becomes very blurry. I have suffered many headaches from trying to focus on my computer screen at work!!! Eyes are also red and irritated looking.

Pros: very comfortable

Cons: can't see

I find myself constantly blinking with these lenses. I can't see anything on a screen. Very comfortable though!

Pros: Extremely clear vision

Cons: Irritating and fragile

I've worn soft contacts for almost 20 years. My optometrist strongly recommended these lenses, so I tried them. This is the worst experience I've ever had with contacts! Only a couple of hours after I put them in, it feels like an eyelash is behind the lens. My vision gets blurry, my eyes water and get dry, and the lenses pop out with no warning. The lenses rip easily - when I picked them out of the lens basket and when I was wearing them! They don't last anywhere near the two weeks the box says. More like 2-7 days. I can see mucous-y protein deposits on them by this time.

Pros: long term wear without buildup

Cons: none

although i should not extend these as long as i do, i feel they are the best contacts i have ever used for this reason. i do end up with some buildup and will replace them whenever i notice this happening. I do sometimes have to go a week or so without using any contacts to let my eyes rest before putting in new ones.

Pros: none

Cons: poor fit

I have always worn Baush and Lomb contacts for 20 yrs and my Eye Doc recommended a change,I really hate them....I spend the better part of 4/7 morning trying to keep them in . They feels like I always have "something in them..." I need to take them in and out.....I am calligh my doc to return them

Pros: They work once in

Cons: 2-3 days into a pack they're too soggy to put in your eye

These are overpriced and the claim that they'll last 2 weeks is about a 4-5X exageration of how long it takes before I literally can try dozens of times to wear them to no avail. Never buy these.

Pros: find easy deals and coupons price

Cons: need more coupons and compare price deals

I order contact lens online vis this site thanks for your deals and discount coupon that you offer it and also the compare price which you offer here.

Pros: comfortable and stay free of deposits

Cons: no adverse qualities noted

I love these contacts. I tried the Affinity brand which supposedly was better but found them uncomfortable and am returning to the Accuvue advance len which I was without complaint.

Pros: good vision

Cons: hard to keep clean

I found these lenses hard to keep clean, even with enzyme soaking and using specialized cleaners, I only get a week max out of them. They get covered with hunks of white deposits, I am assuming these are protein deposits. I am very pleased with how well I see from these lenses, I just wish they lasted a little longer.

Pros: Tinted color makes them easy to see, doesn't dry easily

Cons: blurred vision after an extended amount of time

After using Acuvue 2 for about 2 years, I decided to try Acuvue Advance, and I haven't gone back since! I love how these contacts are so comfortable, even after wearing them for a long period of time. I wear my contacts for up to 14 hrs in a day and I don't even need to put eye drops in. There are times that they can become blurry, but one or two drops of rewetting drops will do the trick. They really are great and I would recommend this brand to anyone.

Pros: good lense in general

Cons: my eyes hurt after wearing it for several years

I have been wearing Acuvue lenses for many years and I had pain in my eyes. I complained it to my doctor but my doctor didn't think it has anything to do with the contact lenses and just didn't know what it was. My pain went away when I switched to Proclear but I still wasn't sure whether is was contact lenses related until I tried Acuvue Oasis during a new contact lense fitting. The pain came back! During the fitting period I tried several brands and I would always get eye strains and pain in my eyes when I wear Acuvue lenses so I concluded all Acuvue lenses are not suitable for me. Other than that, it seems to provide good vision. This fitting experience also taught me that you really have to try a lens and find out whether it works for you or not. Other people's experience may or may not apply to you so find a doctor who will let you try various brands for comparison. And then you judge for yourself.

Pros: Comfortable

Cons: Shift--constantly blurred vision, tear easily, expensive

I've worn contacts for about 15 years and never had a problem with any brand of lens. Upon my optometrists rigorous recommendation, I switched to Acuvue Advanced even though it was significantly more expensive. I've been utterly disappointed--there is no rhyme or reason to when my lenses have a crisp focus or when they go blurry. I assumed maybe it was just a bad fit, so I returned for a follow-up visit--nope, he said they fit perfectly. Hm, then I started reading all the complaints people have about blurred vision with the Advanced lenses--I'll never buy these again. When stored over night, I've noticed they tend to roll so that in the morning they have sharp creases at the midline of the lens; just yesterday, I had a tear in the corner of one of them after just one week of wear. Argh. I can't wait to finish the box and switch to a new brand so I can start seeing clearly again!

Pros: Very little use

Cons: Blurring deposit on lenses after few days

I used to fall asleep and dry me lenses and eyes. I used Focus and O2 Optix then but Advance really disappoint here. At first, I thought it were defective lenses, but the first 2 of the six lenses box were functioning normally. Afterward, they blur after the first time you soak them. Who want to buy monthly for single use?? The +ve reviewer are misleading, price is not a con for lenses if they WORK, too much negative reviews to be an exception.

Pros: I sleep in them!! Don't change them for 3+ weeks!!

Cons: None!!

I got a bad eye infection (from sleeping in, not taking care of my eyes, not cleaning my contacts etc...) after that I HAD to take my contacts out every night, I had to clean them, I had to take care of them - that is until I found Acuvue Advanced! I can wear these for 3 weeks straight, sleep in them and everything - they are so comfortable!!

Pros: Comfortable for first few days, light

Cons: Blurred vision, itchy eyes, uncomfortable after only 2 weeks

I just switched to these lenses and I'm going through them so fast. I try to wait for 30 days, but sometimes I have to switch lenses after only 2 weeks because my vision is so badly blurred. They accumulate protein deposits which cause the blurred vision and they are uncomfortable after only a few days of wearing them, you can start to FEEL them in your eye. I used to change my disposables every 3 months (even though they were 2 week disposables) and I was never bothered by them. This brand however, you NEED to change them every 2-4 weeks or they become really uncomfortable. I'll be switching brands once I use up all the ones I purchased.

Pros: None - Absolutely None

Cons: Thin, Blurry, Tear Easily

I have been wearing disposable contacts for 8 plus years now and have never had any problems until last year when I switched to Acuvue Advance. They are thin, they tear easily, they blur easily, and I ran out of contacts well before my year was up becuase they have to be changed so frequently. I will be switching back to Acuvue 2 which I had no problems with at all.

Pros: comfortable

Cons: thin

My first try with disposable. Going from vial lenses (CSI DW) to disposable, I struggled with the thinness of the disposable.. However, I save a lot of money not having to enzyme clean any more. I tried the Astigmatism ones for a 2 week trial and always felt like there was an eyelash under the contact or something. All in all, try them to see if they work for you. Obviously 1 brand doesn't fit all. They are not bad

Pros: Inexpensive

Cons: Too thin to handle, uncomfortable when first put in

These lenses are horrible. They are extremely thin compared to my previous lens, the SoftLens 66 from B&L. This makes them difficult to handle as they tend to roll up or turn themselves inside out in my hand before I can put them in. It takes me many time longer to put these in than other lenses. I also find I have a difficult time adapting to them each morning and find myself taking them back out, rewashing, and putting them back in again sometimes several times before I leave in the morning.

Pros: longer wear, and more comfortable.

Cons: Sometimes vision goes blur

I have been wearing these contacts for 2 years, and they're better than the other brands i tried before. Acuvue Advance with Hydroclear contacts are very soft, and they can be worn for a long time. I wear them for adverge 9 hours, and they stay comfortable. But sometimes they can get a bit blur, but few drops of eye-drops can make it go away. I say this is one of the best contacts you can wear for long comfort.

Pros: Extremely gentle "feel" if any sensation at all. Very moist.

Cons: Vision isn't as crisp as thinner lenses, but still good

I have used contacts for over 20 years and these seem to be the most innovative in terms of moisture and comfort. Others I've tried have felt like dried plastic film after 10 - 12 hours of wear. These remain soft, even if slept in. The minor vision blurriness is a trade off for the comfort.

Pros: Strong stigmatism correction

Cons: Uncomfortable, rotate out of alignment - blurry vision

O.D. wanted me to try these because my Acuvue Toric lenses "sat a little low" on my eye. Lenses looked like bowls, very deep and large, with a specific oreintation required to get vision correction. Wore lenses 17 hrs/day for 1 week and my eyes always felt tired and I had major problems with the lense rotating out of oreintation resulting in blurred vision. Went back to old Acuvue Toric lenses.

Pros: initial comfort

Cons: durability, cost

My first pair of trial lenses lasted me almost three weeks. After that I went through three pairs in as many weeks. After about a week in each case, one of the lenses wouldn't feel comfortable. It felt like something was in my eye. After inspecting the lens that was bothering me I noted that there was a small cut/piece of the lens missing on the side. My most recent pair lasted only a week, I inspected them but did not see anything, but they were hazy and they didn't feel good. I bought another box of them thinking also, as someone else mentioned, that I had a bad batch. Same thing happened. I gave them a good review because they enable me not to wear my glasses and I'm not sure that I can wear any another lenses. They feel great the first week or so. My eye doctor told me I could get a month out of them easily. I wish.

Pros: None

Cons: Expensive, Uncomfortable

I have been wearing contacts for the past five years or so. Along the years I have tried diffrent brands of contact lenses. Some of them were fine while the others just yield problems. That's the reason that I have been changing lenses in the first place. a year ago when I first came across this J&J Advance contact lenses. Judging from the advertisement and technical information, I assume that this would be the dream lenses I have been looking for. But after a year of patient trial given to this brand of lenses, I have to give it a thumbs down for its under-average performance-it dries my eyes out very quickly, and it causes discomfort to my eyes too. The best lenses I have ever used is still Focus monthly visitint (by B&L? Ciba?).

Pros: Pretty box

Cons: The most uncomfortable lenses I've ever worn

I have worn different brand lenses in each eye for about 7 years, thanks to an innovative optomotrist that would rather correct vision using lens fit rather than cranking up the prescription. Thanks to my insurance, I now get to go to a "big box" chain who cares more about selling lenses than quality eye care. I wore Acuvue2 in my right eye and Focus in my left. Very comfortable, no change in prescrip. in 7 years. This year I was told that "big box" could no longer get the Focus, so I needed to change. The Acuvue advance were new, great, and just what I needed. I have been wearing the Advance for 3 weeks. I complained about them after my initial fitting, but they said it was probably just a bad pair. I've gone through 4 pairs in 3 weeks. They're uncomfortable, make my eyes itch and give me a headache. My mother was fed the same line from "big box" and had the same issues. The optician told her that they have been having issues with this particular lens because of the silicone. "Big box" wouldn't write me a script for my old lenses because THEY didn't carry them anymore -- not because they were no longer available. Now I need to pay another $65 for another prescription and they still won't write me a script for the old ones. These may be comfy for some, but if you're sensitive to silicone, they're absolute garbage.

Pros: Feel like nothing there

Cons: Vision gets blurry easily

I am going back to Acuvue 2. These feel like nothing there, but vision gets blurry off and on with these and make my eyes tired. Acuvue 2 seemed more crisp vision all the time.

Pros: Easy to put in an wear for the first 3 day.

Cons: Rough edges, Hazy film on develops,

When i first started wear the Advance it was only on the weekends for 6 hours because i worked with chemicals during the weekday. But when i changed jobs and started wearing them everyday for 10 hours a day i have had nothing but problems. So, I started replacing my contacts about once a month then every three weeks then 2 and now it's once a week. Over a course of time my contacts would develope a haze or rough edges. I contacted my Eye Doctor many of times regarding this and have purchased new contacts in hopes that it was bad batch. And even threw out bottles of solutions. Well i don't think that was the problem. I use to work in a eye health care profession and i know how important it is to be clean when handling contacts and i made sure i did that each time. But for strange reason i keep having the samething happening over and over again.

Pros: Very soft

Cons: They are only comfortable for the first 2 or 3 days

I was very disappointed in these contacts. They make my eyes scratchy and red after only a few hours.

Pros: Comfort is exceptional.

Cons: Lenses become blurry easily.

I made the jump from my old Boston rigid gas permeable lenses to soft lenses for the first time, and Acuvue Advance is what my optometrist suggested. I couldn't be happier about the comfort of this lens. It's the first soft lens I've ever tried, so I don't have a base of comparison, but I couldn't ever go back to RGP lenses again. I can wear them for twelve hours straight, and they're still comfortable. However, the vision correction in this lens (and maybe all soft lenses, for an RGP wearer) isn't perfect. For some reason, with these lenses, sometimes my vision is crystal clear and I'm amazed at the sharpness, but other times things are a bit blurrier than I would like. I've had the lenses for two months, and so far, I'd trade the comfort for the ultra-crispness.

Pros: none

Cons: Most uncomfortable disposable contacts I have ever used.

I have worn contacts for over 20 years and Surevue disposable ones for over 12 years with no problems. After switching to the silicon hydro gel contacts I have had nothing but problems.

Pros: feel great the first day you put them in

Cons: feel like jagged edges after only a week; itchy eyes as well

I have always worn a yearly soft contact (Cibasoft Standard Visitint) and thought I'd try a disposable. My doc recommended these and they feel awesome the very first day you put them in- super soft, moist, etc. But ever since I've had them, they do not even last the minimum 2 weeks before I have to put the new ones in. And when I take them out at night, my eyes itch. It almost feels like edges get frayed or something, but of course, nothing is visible to the naked eye upon inspection.

Pros: moist, feel like wear nothing

Cons: bit expensive, too soft

Now that I can wear my contact lens for whole day long PLUS without even using a drop of eyes lubricant. My eyes have a very high myopy power and a bit of astigmatism. I have 13 years of history wearing lenses that with each passing days getting more uncomfortable. Not so with Acuvue Advance. From day 1 till 3 weeks after that (a week more than the recommended lenses change), I do not have any complaints. No red eyes, no irritation, no dry up, no getting blury. The lenses are felt so light, clear and easy to manage. Highly recommended. Try a box.

Pros: Long lasting and Moist

Cons: Vision still goes bad over time

I've been wearing these lenses for a while now. They're generally very comfortable and given me better vision than I've ever had with other lenses. But, I'm not sure if it's just because my vision has gotten significantly worse over the years, but the images aren't as crisp as I would like it to be. I have moments of perfect clarity but usually have a bit of fuzziness. Recently I had tried the Acuvue Oasys but that turned out to be worse for me than this so I'm sticking to it. ^_^

Pros: The blue color made them easy to see.

Cons: Irritated my eyes.

I have very dry eyes. I have tried to give the Acuvue Advance lenses a chance. But I found that they also irritated my eyes. My doctor gave me the O2Optix lenses the same day she gave me the Acuvue lenses. The 02Opix lenses, for me, are much more comfortable without any irritation. I love them.

Pros: Your eyes dont hurt when you wear them for a long time

Cons: Other lenses i couldnt wear for long time w/out them hurting

When I was using other contacts I had to take them out after 9 hours because they would dry my eyes out. With Acuvue Advance with Hydroclear my eyes stay moist for a long period of time, more than my old ones. Now i can keep my contacts in until i go to bed. Its amazing how good they work. Im very happy i changed to Acuvue Advance with Hydroclear contacts.

Pros: No irritation whatsoever

Cons: Just have to pay a little more than regular contacts

I have been using these contacts for about 2 months. At first i was skeptical and figured that all contact lens must hurt somehow. However, I was proved wrong. You can wear these contacts all day without the bothersome irritation you eyes get from long term wear of contacts. These must be the best brand of contacts out there. I would recommend these for anyone with sensitive eyes.
