Well a couple more days and you'll find it easy ;)

Any idiot can face a crisis - it's day to day living that wears you out.

I keep telling myself the same...

BTW, the optician lessened my enthusiasm by warning that the contact lens may be torture in pollen allergy season (one reason I wanted them was that I can wear normal sunglasses). Any experiences on that front?

Exactly the opposite, I find that unless I wake up with my eyes running, then Its much better with them than without.

I think if your eyes get teary the lenses can be a nuisance because you may want to rub your eyes but that is not advisable. If tears accumulate and I don´t rub them off or otherwise drain the tears (for instance, with a tissue) my eyes get itchy. That's all I can think of.
