What are the best contacts lenses for nearsightedness?

Im currently using Focus monthly. For some reason, i dont like them so much. They break easily and find myself replacing them often than the older ones i had . The ones i used used to be called 'CHOICE' by ciba vision. they no longer make those and were thick and long lasting, even if they were monthlies. Does anyone have good suggestions for good durable reliable contact lenses, monthly ones? thanks.

its true that choice AB was discontinued by ciba.

focus monthlies are old technology...literally 1980's technology. i pretty much refuse to Rx that lens anymore. inferior IMO.

*plenty* of new products out there that are far, far superior to focus monthlies in so many ways...O2 transmission, moisture retention, optical quality, etc etc

the top lenses rx'd at our office right now:

1) acuvue oasys
2) biomedics XC
3) purevision

Acuvue

I really enjoy my Acuvue lenses. I have the Oasis version at the moment and they're very breathable. I've always thought they gave me very clean, crisp vision. And they have many different versions to suit you.
