I've been wearing Bausch & Lomb for almost a year, and never really noticed how bad they were. Actually i have, but i just assumed others were like that too. For starters, they get really dry after about 12 hours, and the least bit of wind or dust really makes them feel dry and uncomfortable. Today, a buddy of mine told me he wears Acuvues, and they're good for over 24 hours, plus the wind has no effect. Have others had similar experiences with them or other contacts? I think it's time for me to switch, but to what? And can i get free trials anywhere?
