    How could they possibly stay in if you swam in them and opened your eyes underwater? Speaking as someone who used to wear them.

    They can stay in, I haven't had problems with them staying in and I only tend to use them when I am swimming. I use disposables so they're usually tossed later in the day.

    If you soak them and clean them like you usually do than you should be fine. I used to use yearly soft contacts and I used to be able to do that. I didn't do it often mind you. Just be careful. My optimist always warned about swimming with contacts. That is why I use dailys. If I lose one it isn't a big deal.
