They float, unless there's an issue, so you don't feel them at all. The surface of the eyeball, the white bit is just wet skin, so once you accept that a lot of the ick goes away, and contacts are less strain on the eyes, especially for someone as myopic as I am. I need coke bottle lenses in specs, contacts are much better. And I've worn them since I was 19, so 53 years, bit hard to give them up now! I still need reading glasses, unless I take the lenses out, my corrected close up vision isn't good with age related presbyopia. You can get those bifocal lenses, but I'm not brave enough to put up with the adjustment period...
These days I wear soft disposables, a pair lasts a month, but I was using hard lenses, they last for ages - fifteen years in my case, if well looked after. These are easier to look after, and I can stretch wearability to six weeks usually, which saves money.
