[QUOTE="tomBitonti, post: 6249577, member: 13107"] Have tried a lot. Unfortunately, I need hard lenses, and pretty thick ones; soft lenses just don't work. There are gas permeables which are less irritating, but they are still too irritating to wear. I tried a bunch of stuff, including my eye doctor sculpting the lenses slightly to help tears get under them, and to reduce the angle of incidence of the eyelid against them, but nothing worked well enough. The lenses in the picture for the Google contacts looked rigid, which would be the more irritating kind. There could be a problem too if the lenses require a particular material. All of which led to my question about why its better to put the sensor in one's eyes, instead of, say, subdermally. (I don't actually know if that is possible; just a thought.) If one has an insulin pump, there is already an intrusion. Although, the person that I know that had a pump had a finger prick type sensor still. Thx! TomB [/QUOTE]
