The problem is that contacts have a tendency to accumulate crud, as well. Although this might just be due to my not cleaning then as often as I should. Also sleeping with them in...
Yeah, because you never have to clean contacts. :^)
(Actually, in this age of disposables, maybe you don't any more. Huh. Back in my day, cleaning your contacts was a much bigger pain in the ass than wiping your glasses on your shirt.)
With dailies, I don't think you have to clean them at all; with mine, which are biweekly, it takes about 30 seconds every night before bed, with no rubbing involved, and they never have to be cleaned in the middle of the day.
Having been primed by two comments in a row about the importance of cleaning contacts, I misread that as "my contacts started growing blood vessels." It was a bad enough image that I must share it, share it with the world! Although it would be cool if you had a mysterious power to bring objects in contact with you to life.
