Contacts bad for my eyes are comfortable and contacts that are good for my eyes suck.

Hey, I have been wearing freshlook contacts (2 week disposables) and they are uncomfortable and im always rubbing my eyes. Then I went to a vision place and they gave me acuvue 2 and I love them, I cant even feel them in, I can wear them 17 hours a day without dryness, and there is very little redness with absoloutly no discomfort. My problem is that I went to my optom. wearing acuvue 2 she said they were not perscribed to me and that they dont give complete coverage of my eye. I told her my problem and she wants me to keep wearing the uncomfortable freshlook lenses even though I told her I perfer A-2

What should I do? When I wear freshlook after about hour 4 I want to take them out and get rid of them. So I dont know what to do, Im pretty sure wearing lenses that dont hurt my eyes are better then wearing lenses which cause my eyes tear up and I have pull the car over and rub them for a few mins before the stinging stops.

the lesnes are:
Freshlook - 2.75 bc 8.6 dia 14.5

acuvue - 2.75 bc 8.3 dia 14.0

So I dont know know what to do any suggestions.
