Contact wearers

Ever since my LB surgery June '12 I have been unable to wear my contacts for some reason. I've had to buy a nice pair of glasses to wear all of the time. It's like my eyes dry out easily and quickly if I put my contacts in. Has anyone else experienced this with surgery?

I wear contacts and haven't had any issues with them. I use the extended wear ones. Sometimes VERY extended. :)

I'm like Catfish. No change in my contact usage at all, I'm also extended wear. Only difference I've noticed is slightly drier skin which I attribute to the decrease in dietary fat. Had to buy a richer moisturizer!

I had surgery Dec '12 and I have noticed that my eyes have been drier. I just accounted it to the weather. I wear daily disposable and I used to be able to keep them in all day, now it seems by 6 pm, they're pulling my eyeballs out. I've been wearing my glasses a lot lately.
