Lenses for cylindrical power -1.50

2020-12-04 05:38:45
I want to wear contact lenses for. My power is -3.50 with a cylindrical power of -1.50 in both eyes. But toric lenses for astigmatism has not been comfortable for me in the past. Is there any way I can go for soft lenses without cylindrical power?

Hello, This much of a significant cylindrical power will require correction even if you wear contacts Soft toric CL are a good option as they offer clarity with comfort Try changing your brand if the previous brand did not help much
