Subject: Re: Contact lenses and diving...
Bullshit - why did you ask, then? I have done it for years in all kinds
of water. Try taking them out after the dive if you are worried. My
optomestirst is a diver, not an asshole, and he is the one who suggested
them. Do you have any more "questions" you want to ask that you can
straight us all out on?
