I wore them for about 10 years, from 11 to 23. They were great and stopped my eyes from getting any worse, but I ended up getting PRK ~5 years ago which has been worth it overall (exacerbated my dry eye and led to an one eye ulcer from reading too much).
The main issue is the paranoia of sleeping with them on and knowing that if you rub your eyes, it's possible for them to break and cause serious damage. I'm not sure how likely it is, but was a recurring worry and source of nightmares.
It's also something you have to do every day, otherwise it takes a few weeks for your eyes to return to the normal shape.
