Nahulog din isang contact lens ko, grabe hindi ko na nahanap. Sayang kasi bagong open pa lang yon.

That's when I appreciate colored lenses - madali makita! Ang hirap kapag transparent ang labo pa naman ng mata ko so kapa kapa. Hehe. Minsan nasa damit ko lang pala!

I just bought O2 Optix from Ideal Vision for Php1,350 because of the good reviews here and in other websites, na-engganyo tuloy ako to try, I use Acuvue before, excited na ako to try O2 Optix and hopefully hindi na mag-red ang eyes ko which is my usual problem when wearing contact lenses.

Sayang nga hindi ko naabutan yung discounted price thru Ensogo, but anyway medyo malayo din kami sa Eastwood wherein you can claim the discounted O2 Optix, so considering the gas expenses e baka ganun din kalabasan.

Next time I will try the Air Optix naman, for now I will pair it with Opti-free Pure Moist para may moisturizing effect yung lenses.  I was also given Opti-free Replenish for free and I'll see kung ano mas ok.

I'm so thankful sa mga GT sisses na nag recommend ng O2 Optix, it's the first time I'll try breathable contact lenses :)

I called Alcon this afternoon (distributor of Ciba Vision products) re: O2 Optix.

medyo itchy kasi sya and malabo unlike my FreshLook contact lenses. I got hold of a certain Miss Raymundo and promised to get back to me until Friday.

I still have 2 unopened boxes and I have no idea what to do with them.  :-\

i remember i wanted to use colored contact lenses before. although i have perfect eyesight, i just wanted to accentuate my eye color. the optha discouraged me from doing so because i don't really need it, and it might damage my cornea. the risk and discomfort that go with it outweigh the benefits. kaya itinigil ko na ang kahibangan ko.  makuntento sa brown eyes! :)

^yes you can still use the old case but you need to clean it using the contact lens solution. Hindi pwedeng water ang panglinis.

I used to have Ciba focus before it phased out. O2 optix na rin ako. What's nice about it is kahit maiglip ako for few hours na suot yun, hindi nagda-dry ang mata ko pagkagising. Pero pag napasukan nga lang ng buhok ang mata ko, aww! Ang sakit, parang may hiwa sa mata ko! Hindi ko naman naexperience ang ganung pain sa Focus. Tingin ko dahil sa nipis nya.

^ try using Solocare. Mas mahal pero mas maganda ang linis ng lens ko dun. 259 sa Executive Optical, mas mahal sa ibang optical shops. Dati gamit ko renu, ang daling lumabo ng lens ko. Have not tried septocare.

my combination is AO Sept and Solo Care Aqua.

by the way, may Sis ba dito who uses contact lens with 5.0 grade?

I have two pairs of O2 Optix that I want to give away to two individuals. Expiration is February, 2016.

Just pay for the shipping (via Xend) and it's yours.

Php 1,350 for 6 pairs? mura pala yug previous Ensogo deal. Php 650 for 3 pairs. Hope they'll have one again.

im currently using EO's enhance contact lenses. Its colored and may grade. It suppose to be 1 year exp but this happen since I first open and wear my contact lens. My eyes tend to release discharge (muta in tagalog) after 5 hours or more of wearing it. I tried changing my multipurpose solution twice. Yung gamit ko na ngayon is solocare aqua but still my eyes tend to produce "muta" pa din after 5 hours or more... Someone suggested me to use a cleaning solution instead of a multipurpose one, is this ok? I can remember when i use a cleaning solution before prior to multipurpose solution, ang hapdi sa eyes when you wear the lenses.

Is there anyone here who experienced the same thing (nagmumuta effect) ? If yes, please let me know how did you get rid of it. Thanks :)

I use to soak my lenses lang for like 8hours more then wear it again the next day. According to solocare aqua, no more rubbing needed since you soaked it for long. Ikaw ba sis are you rubbing your lens pa with ur hands before wearing it? Is that the proper cleaning of contact lens before wearing it? I use a lens twiser to put my lenses on my eyes I feel like if I use my fingers it might cause dirt lang.
