camping backpack manufacturers image
Mike
i wear Acuvue Oasys Hydroclear, take them out every night. i'm looking for lenses you can keep in all night, cause i will be going into the backcountry, for a few days, and it will be difficult to keep changing them. so, the less i have to take them out, put some in the better.
Answer
I know several people who wear daily-wear contacts such as yours for weeks, even months at a time and say they have no problems. I guess my protein/fat levels in my tears are too high, because if I wear mine for more than a day or two they get all sticky and won't sit still on my eyes.
There are extended-wear contacts that are supposed to be designed to be worn for several days. But I recall that several years ago this was determined to be a scam for manufacturers to charge more for the same lenses.
Nevertheless, this is your eyes we're talking about, and if you mess them up you're in trouble. Go to your eye doctor and ask about extended wear lenses and see what he/she recommends. Or just call him/her on the phone.
When I backpack I just pop my contacts out when I get to camp and put on my spare set of eyeglasses. The only problem I've ever had is being out of water to wash my hands when I get back to camp. So I carry some Wet-Nap hand wipes to clean-up before taking out the contacts. Then I put on my glasses and go about collecting and filtering/boiling more water.

Where can I purchase straps for my backpack?
James Fisc
I recently purchased a day pack that has those small leather diamonds with the two slits. I would like to buy straps for them because I want to strap down an umbrella. I was hoping someone could give me a product or something like that.
Thank you in advance!
Answer
without knowing where you are its rather difficult to answer but try luggage outlets, camping stores, travel accessory shops, canvas manufacturing shops ( ie horse blanket manufacturers)
Or you could get a couple of double sided velcro straps - they work fine & available in sewing shops, hardware stores etc.
