Why...

...do my contacts stick to my eyeballs like saran wrap when I try to take them out after a hot shower?

That's odd! Mine have never done that...

They CLING. It's funny (and also hard to take them out after a shower, lol.)

Mine don't either after a hot shower. The only time I've experienced the "Saran Wrap Cling" was after going on a long walk along the beach with the wind blowing very hard right in my face. It dried out my eyes and ugh! Not a fun experience. Well, it would have been fun if I'd had the sense to switch to glasses before commencing the walk. ;-)

That sounds awful! :-P

Mine do that! I think it's because our water is hard. If you take out the contacts and put them in fluid, they soften back up again.

That's weird! I've never tried taking mine out after a shower, because I take a shower in the morning and put my contacts in after I get out. ;)

I don't think I've ever tried wearing my contacts in the shower; does it work all right, other than the saran-wrap effect?

I've never had a problem. Every now and then if I get water in my eyes they will shift a little and I have to blink to get them in the right spot again, but nothing like the stuck-in-the-back-of-my-eyeball horror stories I heard before I got contacts. =D
