Have you heard of  extended wear contact lenses?

Extended wear contact lenses are a type of contact lens that gives you the convenience of not having to remove or insert your contact lenses before you go to bed or wake up in the morning. These contact lenses are made of a material designed to last two to four weeks. They are usually very thin containing a lot of water allowing oxygen to reach the eyeball even if worn for a long time sometimes even up to 6 consecutive days and nights of wear. They require minimal maintenance, and thus perfect for busy people.

No matter how good this sounds, though, extended wear contact lenses have their downside. They give you a greater chance of contracting corneal infections than daily wear soft contacts.
