Do you take your contacts out at night or sleep in them?

I take my contacts out when I go to sleep at night, mainly because my optometrist tells me I should. However I generally leave them in if I end up taking a nap and then use eye drops when I wake up. If I am going to be taking an extended nap or know I won't be needing them for at least a couple hours I will take them off just to give my eyes a rest, and then put them back in when I am ready to go out.

I used to wear my contacts constantly for months at a time. That wasn't good for my eyes I guess. I got conjunctivitis twice but only after I acidentally poked myself in the eye with my mascara. I don't wear contacts anymore. It's a good thing too. I could have done some real damage to my eyes if I continued to wear them all the time like that.

I took them off every night. It is a bad habit if you dont take it off. It will dry and may stick to your eyes because the contacts lose moisture when you sleep. I am satisfied with my contacts right now. Just do the proper way of using it. And it wont harm you. :)

Back when I still wore contacts, I would only take them out about half the time. It was pure lazy on my part. My eye doctor used to yell at me for wearing them too much. He said wearing them all the time was causing scratches on my eyes.

Back when i wore the 30day contacts i took them out almost every night. I just couldn't convince myself that leaving them in my eyes 24/7 was healthy.

I've always been extremely bad when it comes to taking out my contacts. I did good for about a year, but I've fallen back in the habit of leaving them in...My eyes are soo bad that it's just a horrible feeling when I have them out, even for the short time from getting my glasses and putting them on..
