For those still wearing contacts. Do any of you know if Oasis dailies are any good? Ive read it's the best brand for dry eye bc of the hydralux component....??
I still wear my gas permeable ones but also use Restasis 2 x day. I do take them out early evening and put on my glasses for the evening.

I wear the acuvue oasis hydraclear plus, but not the dailies. I wear the 2 week type. Also, I find that the Bausch and Lomb Peroxiclear solution works the best for moisture and doesn't contain preservatives that make my eyes dryer. For drops while my lenses are in, I use refresh plus. You can use it with contacts. I'm able to wear them through the day with no problems so far. I'm also on Restasis, but make sure you wait at least 15 minutes after putting in restasis before you put in contacts or it will burn like crazy..
I tried the daililies as per my optometrists recommendation. I liked their bandaid effect of protecting my eyes from moving air. Unfortunately it took half a bottle of eye drops for each eye to get them unglued from my eyeballs! Very painful and will not repeat that again.
Thanks for the feedback guys!
I used the Oasis for awhile. They were good.
I wear acuvue moist dailies for 10 yrs. I had tried scleral lenses (with water reservoir) but found them uncomfortable. The acuvue act as a bandaid for my eyes plus vision correction. In terms of dry eye relief, contacts have helped immensly. But I think it's hit or miss , some people with dry eyes find contacts help (like me) for others it worsens it. Worth a try I think.
Thanks everyone for the input! I'm going to try some really hydrating daily lenses.
I tried all types and none seemed to be all that comfortable. About a year ago my Doc introduced me to Alcon's Dailies Total 1. I have found they are the best by far! They run almost 2x as much per box but well worth the price, in my opinion. Good luck!
