Hi,

I plan to get the CibaVision Night and Day 30
day continuous wear soft contacts but plan to wear them only 10 hours
a day and soak them in overnight solution at night. Is the lens made
to be soakable in solution or can damage occur to them? What is the
safest soaking solution to use if it is possible?

The N&D is an expensive lens; if you don't intend to use it for
continuous wear there are a number of other lenses that would likely
work well and save you some money.

In any event, tell your fitter you intend to remove the lens every
night. Your fitter will instruct you in how to care for the lens,
recommend a care system and provide you with a starter package
including a lens case and solution.
