Comments about Biomedics XC:

Ive been wearing contact lenses for 7 years now and have gone through many, many different brands. I frequently got eye infections with one month lenses so wearing these two week lenses worked great. Also, I have awful allergies so in the spring I found myself rubbing my eyes frequently. With other brands, especially acuevue I could feel the contact lenses scracthing at my bottom eye lid but never had that problem again with these lenses. These lenses let alot more oxygen to pass to my eyes also so they dont become uncomfortable and "stick" to my eye at the end of the day. My only problem was that a couple of times the contact ripped in my eye (because I had not double checked for tears before putting it in). I wouldnt change my lens choice though and would definietly recommend these.

Comments about Biomedics XC:

I've worn this brand for several years now. I like that they are worn for only 2 weeks instead of a month. Monthly contacts, by the third week were starting to become uncomfortable and I still had a week to go. I tried many (8-10) different brands before choosing these. I live in a dry climate and have relatively dry eyes. I can put these in at 7:00 a.m. and can wear them until 10:00 p.m. without them becoming irritating. I also have wide open eyes and found that many brands I tried rubbed and irritated my lower eyelids. I think these are larger and fit underneath the lower lid so there is no rubbing. I have never had problems with them being flimsy or tearing easily.

good for sensitive eyes

By grad student

Comments about Biomedics XC:

I used to wear AccuVue contacts, but they were too tight on my eye. The Biomedics XC is great--no irritation, no dryness. Yes, they are a bit filmy and they tear easily. But more importantly, they really allow your eye to breathe.

Not Good for Dry Eyes

By Lisa

About Me Experienced wearer

Pros

Easy to put in
Good value

Cons

Blur vision
Feel dry
Tear easily

Best Uses

Comments about Biomedics XC:

I have worn contacts for years and these are by far the flimsiest brand that I have ever experienced. They tear very easily (sometimes as you are trying to get them out of your eye), dry out very quickly, and cause blurriness/tired eyes if worn for more than 8 hours a day. I would not recommend them unless you have very watery eyes.

  A box consists of 6 lenses. All of these lenses are the same prescription so you can order one box for each eye if your eyes are different.
