i have a question
i have cyl power of -0.75 in both eyes , currently i am using toric lenses

I am testing the Clariti 1day Vs. Myday Toric Vs. Acuvue Oasys 1-Day with HydraLuxe for Astigmatism. I like how the Oasis fit, but it is not as clear as the Clariti 1day. I will try the myday next to see how they compare.
Do you know which one you prefer and why? I want your opinion on these and other suggestions as well. I only have Astigmatism
Thank you! and great video

Hey! I have a stigma in my right eye but wear toric daily contacts in both. (Recommended from my eye doctor) I noticed when I take my contacts out at night and go to read or look at my phone I can’t see up close. I only have farsighted vision, not close up. My eyes have been dry as well and I tried using lubricant eye drops. why is my up close vision terrible when I take my contacts facts out, especially when the contacts are far cited, not nearsighted? Also, when I wear my prescription glasses I see perfectly far and nearsightedness.They are not bifocals , just for farsighted.
June 29, 2022 @ 1:26 pm
I have SPH -7 , CYL -1 and Axis 180 degrees. Can I wear normal contact lens or would I need to wear toric lenses?
June 29, 2022 @ 1:27 pm
thank u for such an informative video!!!..i was planning to switch to toric lenses from usual glasses and my power is -5.5 and -6.5 and CYL for both eyes -1.75..But now i am afraid if tat decision would be a wrong one since many people are complaining about the blurred vison associated with toric lenses,,wat should i do?
June 29, 2022 @ 1:28 pm
I had astigmatism but only myeft eye with blurred eye (left) but my right eye has no condition
June 29, 2022 @ 1:29 pm
i recently got new toric contact lenses but i keep getting fluctuating vision in both eyes which makes them pretty much useless. i have to press on my eyelid to e able to see clearly for a few minutes, is this because my contacts dont fit right??
June 29, 2022 @ 1:29 pm
Not necessary.
June 29, 2022 @ 1:31 pm
I have weighted toric lenses they Aline themselves and I’ve been struggling with taking them in and out because of them being weighted it’s hard
June 29, 2022 @ 1:32 pm
Where I live regular contacts lenses for a year supply of them costs around $200. But for me since I have Astigmatism, a year supply of contacts are around $400 and above. It’s crazy. I’ll just stick to my glasses😁. I would like to get the LASIK eye procedure but I have the fear of something might go wrong and i might not be able to see again
June 29, 2022 @ 1:32 pm
Wish I could wear the same contacts for long but can’t I’ve tried lots of them and they don’t work. Maybe I should get daily ones. Thank u for this video.
June 29, 2022 @ 1:34 pm
I think I might have astigmatism.
June 29, 2022 @ 1:34 pm
How does one go from a little bit of astigmatism a year and a half ago to now having to wear astigmatism contracts? Honestly I’m glad I changed eye doctors.
June 29, 2022 @ 1:36 pm
hello and kind regards, with +1.75 diopter on both eyes and -3.0 power of astigmatism (according to an another doctor – 2.50) do I have to wear RGP lenses or I can wear toric contact lenses instead? i would like to wear toric ones since they’re softer and also i would not quit my glasses. I would wear glasses indoors and lenses outdoors. thanks in advance.
June 29, 2022 @ 1:36 pm
Really helpful, since my astigmatism has gone up a little and I’m considering contacts, even though I have glasses. Thanks for the information and easier for me to consider about with my eye doctor! 👍👏😀
June 29, 2022 @ 1:37 pm
Please Tell me the best lenses for astigmatism 🙂

June 29, 2022 @ 1:43 pm
I went in yesterday for contacts and I found out I have astigmatism I’ve been waiting for contacts since I was little idk if I can were them and this was helpful
June 29, 2022 @ 1:44 pm
Mine said I have astigmatisms but I can see perfectly fine close but not far
June 29, 2022 @ 1:46 pm
Niye renklisini cikarmassaniz su lenslerin seffaf gozleri yorgun gosteriyo
June 29, 2022 @ 1:52 pm
I have -0.75 CYL on my right eye and -1.75 CYL on the left side. My right eye has a SPH of -4.50 & my left eye has a SPH of -3.50. I really want to buy these colored contacts, they have my prescription but they’re not toric. Will I still be able to use them? Or is it impossible 🙁
June 29, 2022 @ 1:53 pm
A Good Sales Pitch, for contacts.
June 29, 2022 @ 1:53 pm
Does the b&L soft toric lens automatically fit into the eye or do I need to manually fit it perfectly before wearing? I heard of some dash lasor lines on the lens. What are they?
June 29, 2022 @ 1:53 pm
Of course, if the toric lens gives you headaches, you can then convert to Spherical Equivalent.
June 29, 2022 @ 1:55 pm
I have high astigmatism and even glasses are not giving me perfect vision. Why so? Will contact lenses help?
June 29, 2022 @ 1:57 pm
Why were most contact lenses discontinued for farsighted people over +6?
Acuvue changed the name and charges 10.00 more for the same thing.
What is the big deal, first color and then the big corperations stoped seling in US.
June 29, 2022 @ 1:57 pm
I tried the B&L Toric contacts, but as I blink, the vision keeps fluctuating like you are on drugs or something.
June 29, 2022 @ 1:58 pm
I just recently started wearing contacts for the first time. I have a severe, SEVERE astigmatism in both eyes.. I was told years ago that they don’t make contacts for people with astigmatism and so I’d never be able to have them. I’m super stoked about them! I was hard to fit though. They had to order a special brand that my eye doctor’s office doesn’t even carry because none of the other brands they carried made them strong enough in vision strength or in base curvature.. They finally did! So happy! Mine lasts three months, each pair.

i have a toric lense in my right eye. I just gave a chance to lenses 3 days ago after wearing glasses for 15 years. My left eye without astigmatism is okay, sometimes i feel it in my eye, it will settle down and my eye will get use to it soon I hope, but my right eye with astigmatism is always blurry 🙁 hope it will settle down too after few days. I was so hyped about it and now I am quite sad :/
June 29, 2022 @ 2:04 pm
Which last longest?
June 29, 2022 @ 2:05 pm
Whenever I wear Lenses outside office I dont feel any ussue..everything is clear..As soon as I enter my Office ..my Lenses gets blurry when I contentrate on anything cintinously for 10 seconds..plz suggest what to do
June 29, 2022 @ 2:06 pm
I have really severe astigmatism in my right eye, with it being 0.25+ sphere and -4.5-4.75 cylinder. My left eye is 0.5+ sphere and -2.75 cylinder. I’m really wanting contact lenses because I live an active lifestyle and I don’t like wearing glasses much anymore (they get annoying). Is it suitable to get lenses or is my prescription too high?
June 29, 2022 @ 2:09 pm
I got my new toric (astigmatism) lenses, and unfortunately, the right one didn’t settle perfectly. 🙁
June 29, 2022 @ 2:10 pm
I have astigmatism but my doctor have referred me copper vision lens which is basically not a toric lens.I am wearing these lens for 4 months but I can’t car number from far aur something written in small .what should I do
