I wore soft contact lenses for 25+ yrs. Problems with my cornea started about 7 years ago, so I switched to glasses full time. Now the glasses are not quite cutting it any longer. So I have been told my options are: a procedure called a superficial keratectomy or wearing rigid gas permeable contact lenses. I am opting to try the RGP lenses.

I have been doing a little research on RGP lenses, but wanted to know if anyone can post their experience. I have heard the adjustment time for RGP lenses is anywhere from 1 week to a month. Any tips or feedback are appreciated. Some have posted on other web sites that you need to build up wearing time gradually, one hour the first day, then two hours the next day, three hours, etc.
