Should my contact lenses (Biomedics 55) feel less comfortable while I'm
at home? They are still OK, and I can wear them for 5 or 6 hours... but
they feel better if I'm out.

Anyone experiencing the same?

Thanks!

My house is really clean :P It's usually warm and I have an small
parrot, but it's in the garden xDD Being serious, I don't have big
problems wearing my lenses here, but I find them more comfortable out
there...

Thanks

Is it possible that you don't move your eyes as much when you're at home as
when you're in the outside world? My lenses feel better when I keep my eyes
moving than when I stare at a book or computer screen for more hours per day
than I'm willing to admit in public.

Another possibility: heavy air conditioning leading to dryer air leading to
dryer lenses?
