What? FELL out? It's not possible for soft lenses to fall out.
Au contraire. These were soft lenses, and they very definitely fell out onto the table at the eye doctor's about thirty seconds after I finally got the damn things in. (It had taken me an hour to put them in, so perhaps my eyes were too dry by that point for them to adhere.) The assistant who was helping me basically said, "Um. Come back tomorrow and try again." To which I replied, "I think I'll just stick with the glasses."
Also, I've got astigmatism, and I do just fine with contacts. Really.
Well, the doctor said it wouldn't be terribly unclear, just that it wouldn't be as clear as my glasses. I got the impression it might've worked out to only 20/20, as opposed to the 20/15 I enjoy with my glasses.
