Is it safe to wear extended contact lenses?
Pesonally speaking, I would not suggest to wear contacts cuz they have a higher risk of getting infection than wearing glasses. Though extended contacts are designed specifically for overnight use and are also far more permeable, you can also get irritation and other eye problem when using them.
Are macular degeneration more common in women than men?

Is that true that floaters can be moved by blasting them to small particles?
I have never heard that. Most Ophthalmologists think there is no need to treat the floaters as it doesn't harm your vision. Maybe you can call the professional Ophthalmologists and ask.
Is it possible to test which index your lens is?
There is no way to detect the lens index after they are cut. But an experienced optician should be able to feel the difference between a 1.56, 1.60 or 1.67 index lens. You can compare the thickness with your original glasses and figure out if the index is right.

It maybe. The harsh chemicals in a swimming pool can cause some people to have irritation in the eyes. They could have redness and a sensation of foreign objects in their eyes. So it is better to wear swimming goggles when swimming.
Why do I have "gluey" eyelids?
You may get inflammation in your eyes and try to wash your eyes with saline water. It is better to see an doctor and get some prescripted eye drops.
Can different index lens in my glasses cause vision problem?
I think it would not cause vision problem if you feel comfortable with them. You may need several days to get used to them and your brain would try to adjust between the different lenses.
How Thick would a 1.57 index lens be?
It should depend on how strong your prescription is. The 1.57 index lens will be 15% thinner than standard 1.5 index with the same prescription. They are suitable for wearer under +/_2.00.
