> If you're not using any solution, I'm guessing that means you don't rinse them with saline before putting them in? If so, hie thee to the chemist's for a bottle of thimerisol free saline solution! It will help.
You are so right! I just put them straight in. I will hie me to a chemist pronto!
> It may be that you're not feeling the irritation to your eyes. Trust me -- your eyes are not as sensitive as you think, but the skin around them is. Try that for a few days or weeks, see if it helps. I'll bet it does.

Thanks, Racer.
