Overwearing disposables

When you buy a 6 pack of disposable razors, do you wait until you
bleed one-too-many times before you change them?  When you buy a 6
pack of underwear, do you wear each pair until they are disgusting,
and then go for the next one?

If you answer "No" to those questions, you can understand what the
answer is to your question.  Disposable contacts are a commodity,
like
a razor, and you should let your calendar tell you to throw them
away,
and not your eyes.  Today's lenses are so comfortable that they can
be
two sizes too tight from build-up and still not "hurt".  Throw em
out.  Save money on  skipping bottled water, not your eyes.

Gotta disagree some here.  The razor blade analogy is not a good one
since a blade can degrade after one use. Cleaning a blade after use
doesn't keep it sharp, cleaning just cleans it.

The underwear one is a better one.

Let's say for instance the life span of typical underwear is one
year,worn and washed daily.
If one were to wear and then wash them once a week, wouldn't they be
expected to last more than a year?
