Wanted: One Custom Contact!

We lost a contact a few days ago... This is the second custom contact that has been lost since we started this process.

Luckily, I had just ordered a spare, since we had been using this contact for a while, and it fits pretty well.

Now M is using what was the spare, and I'm thinking I should order another - this time for a real spare, a spare contact that actually remains a spare for more than 2 days before being called up!

On the bright side, because it's a new contact, it is so much clearer in appearance, less cloudy, and much easier to handle when getting it in and out of M's eye.

M had her cataract removal surgery on November 23, 2012.  Since then we have needed 3 custom contacts, which means we have paid $525 for contacts thus far.  If I order another as a spare, that'll be up to $700.  We've been at this for almost 6 months, and I'm of course hoping custom contacts manage to last longer, get lost less frequently, or get found easily when lost!  In the world of babies wearing custom contacts, M's number is still pretty good.
