I have wanted soft contact lenses for several years now -- since I
have finished putting myself through college (except for those student
loans, ugh!!), I can afford them.  My question is this:  What about
Permalenses (or other gas-permeables) as opposed to other soft or
semi-soft lenses.  I would appreciate any info you could give me
concerning comfort, EASE OF CARE (I'm very lazy), longevity, etc.
Also, if you recommend a certain type of lenses, prices, cookers
vs. chemicals for cleaning, fragility (i.e., will they disintigrate
if hairspray or something gets in my eyes), etc. would also be very
nice.

Plez reply to me by mail unless you feel that a lot of people would
be interested.  If you would like a report of my results on lens
preferences posted to net.med, say so in your mail and I will do so
if interest warrants -- otherwise you will get your own copy via
electronic mail.  My addresses follow:

Thanks 4 ur time,
