How long do I wear the trial pair of contacts?

Question

I have been wearing the trial pair of contacts for almost three weeks. I just received my actual prescription pair on Friday, which are Acuvue Oasys for Astigmatism. I'm unsure when I should start using the prescribed contacts, as the package does not indicate how long the trial lenses can be worn, which is quite frustrating. I would call my doctor for clarification, but they are currently unavailable and the office is closed today. Thank you in advance for your assistance!

Most trial lenses only last for two weeks or so, so you’ve definitely got to stop wearing them. As for the Acuvue Oasys lenses, check their website and find the kind of lenses you use. They should tell you how long your contacts are supposed to last — that’s how I found out about mine. ð

You can wear a trial contacts for how ever long the true contact lenses (not trials) are supposed to last. Acuvue Oasys is a two week contact lens. This means you should have thrown them away one week ago. Other contacts, such as Air Optix or Proclear Compatibles are monthly lenses…which means the trials as well the “real” contacts last one month. Daily contacts such as Focus Dailies only last….you guessed it…one day. Please take out the lenses and throw them away. Open up a fresh pair and plan to throw those away in two weeks. Even if you only wear them occasionally, once you open each pack, you’ve got two weeks to use them.

Note: Most contact lens trials DO NOT last two weeks. Again, it depends on which lenses you were prescribed.

Depends on the kind. Some are only 1 day, while other trial contacts can go up to 3 weeks.

Two weeks.  Toss them and start wearing your prescribed ones now.
