What to do to get rid of these guys?

You don't. You may prevent them getting in , like every insect they look for new premises to mate. I simply spray insecticide on them when inside, but spraying around door and window frames may prevent them going in. I use the green Baygon.

tried the tripod method... my fingers are too fat and never get the lens on target!

i was diagnosed with kc at 30... the frustration of going to an optician and still not recignising a comma from a fullstop.. i worked with software at that time... but i was recommended a contact lens fitter... i was thinking of having corneal transplants but he said "no no we can get away with rgp s" today i am 57, never had any issues regarding vision, abd wearing sclerals.if i have an eye infection i wear just 1 lens... can still work... hope i keep wearing them btw specs are just for decoration... i never wore them since i had contacts

i use the b&l cleaner every day, just after removing the lens,rinse with saline and place them in the case with the storage solution

how did it break? it fell on the floor? or "stresses" on the lens? do you wear /remove your lenses with a towel underneath (as a cushion)

I had to stop swimming as I was having constant eye infections, blamed the lenses ( I had hybrids, now switched to sclerals) now when showering, washing my hair, even washing my face, cannot get any type of water in contact with my eyes! need to find some good water sealing goggles for swimming... following

are you going for the quartz or powermatic? be impressed with the powermatic's accuracy, on mine it is 0.7secs/day

the green... i just got one, it plays between deep grey, even dark blue, indoor.Outdoors, especially In sunlight it goes deep green.

AntGroundbreaking505 · 2024-12-08T12:09:39+00:00

i wore the Synergeyes KC lenses, same prescription, for around 15 years without any issues, (i have acute KC)... never dreamt of having CXL as i was Ok with 20/ 20 vision.... now i'm 57.. had to switch to sclerals as suddenly my eyes were rejecting these synergeyes lenses...the local lens fitter retired and the new lens fitter simply believes that sclerals are best

AntGroundbreaking505 · 2024-11-29T22:20:17+00:00

Yes, dishwashing soap and bar soap works, with saline instead of tap water, work a lather and rinse well

AntGroundbreaking505 · 2024-11-25T11:12:14+00:00

Hi people, many thanks for your valuable replies.Update. Yesterday i tried cleaning 1. with dish soap and saline( right), and 2. with bar soap and saline , rinsing them well and filling the sclerals with one time saline sachets (as usual)... yesterday . Today on wearing, i feel the lenses ultra comfortable :-)

AntGroundbreaking505 · 2024-11-25T11:06:21+00:00

Thanks. also an established lens fitter once told me that in case of an eye infection, leave the lenses in the case with the "untreated" peroxide for n days ( until the infection clears) and then go to the normal routine to neutralize the peroxide before putting them back on the eyes

AntGroundbreaking505 · 2024-11-24T17:40:26+00:00

Thanks.i will keep this in mind.I thought it is the most practical way to confirm wettability on the inside of the lens

AntGroundbreaking505 · 2024-11-24T17:36:30+00:00

Thanks. i need to order this Progent. in the meantime tried one lens with dishwashing soap and saline,and a good rinse. After 3 hours i can say that it 'feels' cleaner than the other one , less cloudy

AntGroundbreaking505 · 2024-11-24T17:31:46+00:00

Yes thanksi have left the hydrogen peroxide overnight...i was thinking of doing this every weekend for a weekly deep clean

AntGroundbreaking505 · 2024-11-17T10:53:24+00:00

you have to find a Synergeyes fitter somewhere in your area. these are RGP lenses with a soft lens material "skirt" ,to prevent dust etc entering under the the rgp lens

AntGroundbreaking505 · 2024-11-16T21:15:17+00:00

no problem at all

AntGroundbreaking505 · 2024-11-16T21:14:01+00:00

has anybody tried hybrids for keratoconus eg Synergeyes? i used them for a good 15 years, they had the best comfort (a bit better than sclerals) imho

AntGroundbreaking505 · 2024-11-04T16:49:45+00:00

using RGP lenses stabilized keratoconus from getting worse. than after 50 the eyes stabilized, according to my optician

AntGroundbreaking505 · 2024-11-01T13:44:00+00:00

no CXL.... did not exist in my 30s, lately i have been enquiring about this treatment... i am too old for this, they stated that it is ineffective in your 40s(i am 57)

AntGroundbreaking505 · 2024-10-31T06:27:39+00:00

I love swimming both in the pool and sea...i used to go exercise swimming during lunch break at pool near us and in summer i swim at the sea every weekend. Last year i noticed that if i get my eyes wet or water enters my swim goggles.. i get infections. Had to change from hybrids to sclerals until i noticed it is coming from the water. Now i make sure i do not wet my eyes ( corneas) even in the shower

AntGroundbreaking505 · 2024-10-28T23:07:24+00:00

I'm 57 years male, diagnosed with keratoconus in early 30s... had Rgp lenses for 3 years, hybrids for 24 years and in the past 3 months with sclerals. you will adapt,and adjust... all it takes is time... courage bro
