I always found contacts troublesome. And by the end of the day my eyes were dry and burning. 7-8 hours of sleep would probably be more tolerable than 16 waking hours were. Any mention of limits on prescription strength? My eyes are pretty bad and I wonder if the lens can accomodate the level of distortion in eye shape necessitated by extreme myopia. I like it.
