what is the best kind of soft contacts to get?

Question: My 14 year old son is about to get contacts and thinking about comfort but also expense what type is the best way to go monthly disposable or i even heard there is a yearly kind

Answers:
Definitely go for the monthly disposal (or 2-3 weeks)
I use Sofmed and they are comfortable and I like them. It only cost me $18 for 6 lenses. (America's Best)
If he has astigmatism it will cost roughly twice that for 6 lenses.

Do not get yearly kind.
And do not get extended wear. Just make your son suck it up and take them out to clean every night.

Use ONLY hydrogen peroxide solutions to clean them.
Don't be fooled by those all-in-one cleaner and rinse solution, (especially for a 14 year old)
The hydrogen peroxide solutions KILL all germs. Far less incidence of eye infections.

I use a product called UltraCare for that.
A yearly supply of cleaning solutions end up costing about the same as the lenses.

Acuvue is a good brand, is also one of the least expensive. I've used them for 8 years!
