Dont Do it: No. Eyes are too sensitive. You should never, ever, put in someone else's contact lens prescription. Your eye doctor should have a way to help you see what your eyes will look like with either of your choices.

No,: Lenses come sterile and you could transfer a disease unless you could sterilize first.
