I just reread the contact lens article on Money Saving Expert. It has lots of interesting info, mostly about saving money, but also sections like "Are daily lenses secretly the same as monthlies?". Check it out.

Competence, like truth, beauty and contact lenses, is in the eye of the beholder.

My buddy Andrew tells me there are some excellent FAQs here, and he's absolutly right.

Contact Lenses Today reports that Coopervision has expanded the parameters available for their Proclear Sphere monthly replacement contact lenses, with 8.6 powers going from -20.00 through 20.00.

Acuvue and Johnson & Johnson have just converted their Acuminder application to a Facebook application. Both the Acuminder site and the Facebook application provide you with reminders about ordering your contact lenses and getting annual eye exams.

www.acuvue.com has published a PDF called "Be the Best You Can Be", which highlights the ways in which improving your vision (using, of course, Acuvue brand contact lenses) can make you better at what you do. It was an interesting read, especially about the soccer player and why UV protection is important (something that I should take more care of since I spend a lot of time outdoors here on the Mediterranean coast). I got the news from the Contact Lenses Today newsletter, which also talked about free samples, but I assume that's only for the US market.
