Every person that wears contacts should be under the care of an optometrist or ophthalmologist to answer questions like that.

for how long we can use the same contact lenses? My friend says that after six months we should throw away the old one and go for new one.
Supersavers opticians
artificial tears: example Systane, Soothe, Refresh, Blink, etc.

Thanks very much for your quick response. I'm a male but I'm guessing that doesn't change much.
Just as a quick follow up and out of curiosity. Why shouldn't I use it regularly if it won't hurt my eye? What kind of eye drops should I buy instead?
Again, my thanks
It is very unlikely that you are really getting all this stuff in your eyes. You may be developing "dry eye syndrome" especially if female. I suggest you read the article on dry eyes on this community forum page and also see an ophthalmologist eye MD. Find one near you at www.aao.org
No it won't hurt your eye but don't use it regularly.
