why wouldnt crisco work?? if it works for getting fat kids and little animals out of wells and drains everywhere, why owuldnt it lubricate your eye?? the same oculd be said for astro glide lube or KY...it works for anuses..why not your eye...
 
I have some eyedrops that are designed to be used with contacts if they feel too dry... They're called optitears or something and work just fine.

If I'm going to smoke when I'm wearing contacts I usually apply a few drops in both eyes before puffing and I don't get any problems, but my eyes really turn extra red, even with the eyedrops.. Better to smoke with glasses on imho... though it's nice to enjoy the extra widescreen vision that contacts provide after a good smoke :)

dude, get "Visine-A"..

there are many many types of Visine.. but make sure you get A... not A.C.... A comes in a weird bottle unlike the others and is like 8 bucks.. but its awesome...the other types of visine cant even compare with this.

It's really just a matter of finding glasses that you're really comfortable with.. And then breaking or loosing them so you're back to square one :p

Try clearx. I use it every time I smoke. So I go through a bottle every 3 weeks. It is made by the brand alcon. Only shit I found works for me. As to who suggested he wear glasses, WTF! Im sure if he wanted to do that he would have and not ask this question. ITS Good shit to go with your good shit!

I've never tried that Visine-A, but looks interesting. The problem with most eye drops such as visine, clear eyes etc. is that they clog the pores in your contact.
I usually put some of my contact solution in my eye.

But I just got a sweet new pair of frames so the contacts come out for a long smoke session.

Try applying small squares of uncooked duckfat to your eyes when they get dry....

weird. This same thing happens to me all the time and it gets annoying. Only seems to happen to some people though. I am begining to think its some kind of allergic reaction. Maybe I am just wrong. I have like 6 different kinds of eye drops and none seem to work that great.

Smoke something harsher, coughing always works the tear ducts to production. Might suck for the lings, but hey were talking eyes here.
