I was thinking of changing over to contacts.But I don't know much about it.Many of my friends are telling that it will be quite tedious work and you have to be extra careful. Is having contacts that tedious?? Also can i wear it while swimming or when I am in water?? So in short would you recommend using it??

No, I would not. Just reading the title of this, I was thinking to myself "I'm glad I don't wear contacts anymore!". Contacts are a lot of work. You can't forget to take them out and clean them every night, or they could roll under your eyes. Also, if you don't clean them a lot, or properly, you will get eye infections and could even go blind if you do it too much. Also, a few years ago some company that made contacts were making people blind or get infections. So, it's just another thing to worry about.

That's exactly my worry too.Have heard many incidents of people getting infections in their eyes.Well its eyes and that is the hard part.If it was any other organ I would have taken the risk.
