Use rewetting drops: Use an eye moisturizing drop in each eye as you feel it getting dry.

There may be none: Depending on how dry your eyes are, you may not be able to handle contact lenses. Contacts themselves are known to create a relative dry eye situation and can worsen dry eyes that are already present. Contacts with higher water content tend to be more comfortable, but all types may end up being too uncomfortable. Wetting drops may help; speak with your eye doctor if you have any questions.

Dry eye contacts: Dry eye patients do quite well with oasys or air optix lenses. If these are uncomfortable, switching to proclear contacts can be helpful. Maximizing treatment of dry eye is crucial to minimize contact related issues.
