Oh, also I found that in the early days lenses did give me a headache - you eyes are adjusting to a lens right on them, rather than a few centimetres in front. This is better for you in the long run - as the center of the lens is exactly where it needs to be all the time. Sometimes with the slippage of glasses you are straining your eyes through a less optimal part of the lens. Long term glasses wearers acclimatise to this and when I switched to lenses I found the *lack* of straining gave me a bit of a headache. <br/><br/>I have rambled extensively, and probably not at all helpfully. :) Still, thanks for the link, and for minimal Who spoilers - I have yet to watch the new lot. contact lenses get easier with time – if you don’t mind poking yourself in the eye every day.
