1. Yikes Posted by TG on Aug 21, 2008

   
   My eye "professional" has tried for two years to get me to switch from the colored aqua lenses (which he said I didn't need because my eyes are already green, I'll get a better seal with the others, I can sleep in them for a month, blah, blah, blah) and I finally agreed to switch to one of the "better" lenses. Yikes! They never did sit properly. I switched again to the Night and Day lenses. Boy, was that a mistake! Not only were they uncomfortable, but they also collected protein like the contacts of old. After 4 months and 5 trips to see the Dr.(which I paid for every time) I asked to be switched back to the aqua lenses I have worn and had no problems with for almost 15 years. The softcolor contacts -- for TWO BOXES -- were $118. For. Two. Boxes. Look at the prices here and you'll understand why I am so incredulous. Think someone was a little upset that I put my foot down?Source: AC Lens

   I have also used these for 10+ years and LOVE them! My eye professional also asked if I would like to switch and I said NO WAY!! I use the evergreen and everyone always comments on my eye color. I have green eyes already but these make them stand out even more and don't look fake:)Source: AC Lens

3. I wear these in royal blue Posted by K on May 10, 2008

   
   I wear these in royal blue. They were awesome lenses that I would wear about a week or two without any discomfort at all. My doc wanted me to try some others because we heard that these lenses will be discontinued. I'm crushed and can't find any good lenses to replace them. -The new Night and Day lenses are not available in colors. Nor are they as comfortable as the Focus. I have to take them out once every day get too foggy. Sometimes they only last a few hours. Are they TOO permeable and collect protein? They are supposed to last 30 days but I only get 4 or 5 days out of them. Very expensive waste of money! -I tried the Accuvue daily disposable colors but they put brown specks on the blue lenses. What a stupid idea. I have blue eyes, I buy blue lenses and they want to put brown specks on them??? It made me look like a freak! Not only that, but they felt like potato chips in my eyes. I'm not in the habit of taking my lenses out at night and sometimes I forget. Then it makes it really hard to get the lenses out of the eyes. I want my Focus Softcolors back!Source: AC Lens

   Besides the fact that I've worn Focus lenses for 13 years for their high comfort level, clarity and durability, the Softcolors (in evergreen) greatly enhance my already green eyes. They don't make my eyes look fake and the ladies love it!Source: AC Lens
