Contact Lenses and Theme Parks!

I could probably source them much more cheaply online.

That's a lot cheaper than I was expecting! Thanks for this, I'll pop in and see my optician next week.

I have had gas permeable lenses since I was 17, 52 now. Can't see a thing without them or specs. Mostly wear my lenses, usually all day, every day, and have no problems. If they are properly fitted they shouldn't just come out during normal wear, and in this I would include theme park rides including water rides. I have been on lots of rides including coasters and never had any problems. Naturally swimmings out, so I take an old pair of specs to water parks!

I wear Dailies, and though i've never worn them at Disney, I have at other theme parks and have never had a problem.

Swimming, as long as you don't spend to much time underwater, is fine too

Same here, i have always worn mine at the water parks and have never lost one yet!
I take daily disposables though, less hassle in that you don't have to faff with cleaning them etc. You could just purchase 30 pairs to take away with you...
