Well it's not a struggle for me... I've been doing it 25+ years, so I can almost do it in my sleep. (I think I have a couple times.) Most of the time they're not noticeable, but I do need to use rewettening drops sometimes.

Yeah, I had this conception that soft lenses would automatically be more comfortable. My doctor said it's worth trying, but don't be surprised if it turns out I like the RGPs better. Like I said, this way I'll put the issue to rest in my mind for good.
