Yes, I have Oasys Acuvue which you can leave in for up to 6-7 days at a time comtinuously, or wear for 12-14 days if you take them out at night. They are the most comfortable lenses I have ever had. I tend to take them out because it's cheaper (!) but it's really nice not worrying about falling asleep with them in, or forgetting your case etc on a weekend away, so I have done quite a few overnights/weekends too.

I use EasyVision - Aquaeyes by Specsavers, and keep them in for a full month, including overnight. Your eyes have to be in good health though as they are the most risky for infections etc.

I had them. I found they dried my eyes out too much, am back on daily disposables now.
