I currently wear Acuvue Advance for Astigmatism and my Rx is: Right eye: D +0.00 CYL/AXIS -1.75 180 Left eye: D +0.25 CYL/AXIS -1.75 180 is there a way to wear regular spherical lenses? Or am I totally stuck with the torics? I wanted to order the Freshlook ColorBlend Toric lenses but the manufacturer only makes them in negative power ): So I figured I might try and ...

I have a slight astigmatism in my left eye: Power: -5.25 Cylinder: -0.75 Axis: 170 I was originally given proclear torics for it. They would dry out by the end of the day at work and become very uncomfortable. I then tried Acuvue Advance for asigmatism and they were worse. I finally tried B&L Purevision Torics. They were much longer lasting but I could still feel it...

Ive been to Walmart & Lensecrafter, both of them dont have any colored toric lense for my power so i am using the non colored toric (purevision & acuvue) lense but want a brown colored lense, any idea which brands i could get or if any stores sell them? My Prescription reads: OD: -9.0, -2.25, 010 OS: -8.5, -2.25, 170 Thanks.

I am new to bifocal contact lens - this is my third week. I'm on my third set of B/L SoftLens multifocal. We keep switching to get better vision. I am slightly nearsited (-0.7 and -1.2 I think), wear glasses for driving and see great! I don't need anything for the computer but am just starting to have a bit of trouble reading/knitting and am using drugstore reading...

Hi, I went for an eye exam and the eye doctor gave me a card with this prescription: R - Sphere -1.25 L - Sphere -.075 Cylinder -.075 Axis 105 Contact he gave me for right eye was perfect, but he tried several for left eye and none of them worked right. They felt like they scratched my eye and I seen a blurry spot out of the peripheal vision with them. The ...

I've been using monovision for just over a year with Purevision Toric lenses - near +4.25/-1.25x90, distance +2.25/-0.75x80. With Regard solution, the lenses are so comfortable I don't know they're there. I have really excellent near and distance vision - bottom line of eye chart and smallest font at reading distance without wearing readers; mid-range vision is ...

I am new to wearing contact lens and need correction for both near and far. The lens I am trying now provide great correction for near vision but the distance is horrible. Do some manufacturers provide a larger distance ring on multifocal lens?

They are the blue ones the dark haired girl is wearing in all photos.

Hello, Doctor. I am a 25 year old female and have a prescription question. I have an prescription for toric lenses since I have a slight astigmatism. Now that school has started, I am on a budget and am wondering if I can get spherical lenses instead since they are cheaper. My prescription is still low so I'm hoping that it won't cause too much damage to my eyes. ...

I have worn GP lenses for distance for many years and love them. Now, I need reading glasses, too. I have readers that I wear with my contacts (really annoying on again off again) and no-line multifocal glasses that I wear most of the time (very good vision correction) since I don't like to fool with the readers. I have astigmatism. I really want to be...
