Best contact lens for a person with dry eyes
I don't think that there is one contact that is best for everyone with dry eyes. The contact recommended above (Trueye Acuvue dailies) is an excellent one-day silicone hyrdrogel lens. However, it is somewhat thicker than a 1-day Acuvue moist contact, which might make it less comfortable for some wearers. I'd suggest consulting a doctor who specializes in fitting conacts (probably an optometrist), who can give you samples of several different contacts to try out.
Thank you for all your help on this site. You answered some questions I had about myopic degeneration from a 2008 post. I'm 22 and an LMU student :)
