I have worn gas permeable (hard) contacts since 1987 (not the same pair, but the same type) but lately my eyes have been exceedingly sore. Moreover, I cannot read road signs, I squint at my computer screen, and I cannot read the clock or channel on my T.V. I could not even tell that Ralph Fiennes had a hairlip when watching Red Dragon--I was very confused about the plot because of this until I mentioned to my companions, "Why is Ralph Fiennes complaining about his face?"
The optometrist claims that the reason my prescription does not allow me to actually see is that the lenses curve my eyes so that he cannot get a proper reading unless I don't wear the contacts for two weeks prior to the appointment. I would gladly do this, except my glasses prescription is even more archaic and I can't drive, read, or even exist without getting an extreme headache if I try to wear them. I think I want to try soft contacts. Has anyone here gone from gas permeable to soft lenses? As I recall, back in the day gas permeable were my only option due to my astigmatism and the football shape of my eyes (as opposed to spherical).

I don't wear glasses and I didn't know Ralph Fiennes had a hairlip in Red Dragon. His character was badly defined and the whole Blake poetry obsession was a pathetic attempt to mimic the high-browness of the butterfly collector muderer in Silence of the Lambs.
Another sequel that shouldn't have been made, yet MILES better than Hannibal. Hannibal degraded into a comic horror farce like Serial Mom. I scanned the credits afterward to make sure Waters didn't have an exec producer credit. All existing copies of that movie should be burned.
