1. what kind are you wearing now? Try acuvue oasis. I hear they are really comfortable. I use biomedics and they are pretty good.
2. im not sure what kind will last longer, but i can give you some suggestions to make them last longer. you can put in eye drops in when they feel dry and [if you are a new to them this is normal it takes some time for your eyes to adjust to contacts, what you have to do is gradually build up the time of useage
3. if your eyes get tired that means it may be time to change your prescription. By law contact lens wearers are to be seen once every year by their contact lens doctor. So you may need an update. At that appointment is when your doctor can change the type of lens you are wearing if you are unhappy with your current ones. If anyone sells you anything different then they would be breaking the law. eye drops will only help with dryness.. not with the tired eyes. Tiredness doesnt come from lack of moisture, it comes from the prescription (or from wearing them too long) -Never sleep in your contacts -Always clean your contacts and case -NEVER use your contacts with water. Any type of water is bad. Good luck!
4. Ask you Optometrist a good choice I think is Oasis it has a large amount of water is more expensive but you should try to be more comfortable with your lenses , you never mention how old is your prescription maybe you need another refraction so go see you DR<
5. I am user of contacts for 5 years. I have tried at least 5 different brands in 5 years. However; only last year i was happy with wearing contact lenses. It is because of Pure Vision 2.0 . These brand's lenses are so comfortable and easy to use that i do not even feel that i have them in my eyes:) You can put them on like for a month without taking them off. They have the ability to omit %85 of the oxygen. It means that the contacts have mousturizing effect .That's why it is exactly what you want.You can get them anywhere such as opticians,pharmacy's etc. Here is the link where you can get them online; http://www.lenscatalogue.co.uk/displaylens.asp?kw=purevision&LensID=163 Wish you the best.
6. i use opti-free. i suggest you use a rewetting soluton by opti-free too to get some moisture back.
7. Proclear, oasys, purevision.
