ant - I had contacts that were "sleepable" but my dr. said that my prescription would stabilize if I stopped sleeping in them so he gave me some that you CANNOT sleep in. It did stabilize my scrip but sometimes you find yourself passed out without your lens case... uh, I mean... yeah
Cori -that fungus thing is a big deal! I was warned about it numerous times at my last check up. as far as the tailbone thing... I feel for ya... it all depends on just how bruised it is. I got pretty banged up about 3 yrs ago and I still get tinges of pain once in a while. same with my fractured rib. I think bones hold grudges
Ive never had any issues yet, they\'re not the sleepable kind, but I do it anyway. Call me lazy, or it may be because I go to sleep watching tv and have ruined many pairs of glasses while a kid because of it. As for making them last longer, I\'m a cheap bastard and it saves me money

I get chewed out every exam (usually by different doctors cos I go to the wal mart eye places, usually a different one everytime), they tell me its bad, I just dont listen, heh. The only reason I even go for exams is because state or federal law requires it once a year for contacts (something like that). Ive never been warned about the fungus issue though.
What do you mean by stabalize your prescription? That mean it won\'t get worse? Hell, what does it matter to me anyway, I\'m almost legally blind without them anyway, I wouldn\'t recognize if my vision got worse anyway, which apparantely it does every year, heh. I need to hit lotto and get Lasik
Yeah, when I stopped sleeping in my contacts my prescription has stayed the same, whereas when I WAS sleeping in them it would get higher every year. Having a stable scrip makes you more eligible for laser surgery.
sorry to hear about the eye injury, Holly.
What the hell is the point of a tailbone anyway?
It is the leftover part of the tails we used to have. Pretty useless now!!
