-3.5 cylinder or spherical power is important to mention..if you have added cylindrical power you have to go for customised contact lens other wise you may have asthenopic symptoms like headache and eye ache..so once see your doctor and go with his opinion

Better to visit any nearby Ophthalmologist for detailed refraction and slit lamp examination. He / She will guide you accordingly after examination.
