I know what you mean but... I do find it off putting when he pins me against the ropes & the Nurse starts hitting the floor shouting "one ah, two ah" - never quite made it to "three ah" with me so I retain the belt to return again lol!!! :lol:

I found the mini sclerals to be very comfortable because they sit on the white of the eye. I have very dry eyes though after lasik and any hair, or debris that get in the eye become intolerable. The right eye uses a standard rgp lens and I recently am reying the reverse geometry lenses which seem very comfortable. They are flatter on the part of the eye at the pupil and then go over the protrusion. Ask your doctor about them. The mini sclerals are 15-16 diameter and are easier to get in than the larger lenses. Good luck.
