Astigmatism-axis change
Hello doctor,
My eye check up results of 2018 were Right DV (Cyl: -3, Axis 180°, VA 6/6) and Left DV(Cyl: -4, Axis 10°, VA 6/6).
Recently i had an eye check which gave results R(Cyl: -2.5, Axis 170°) and L(Cyl: -3.25, Axis 10°).
When i went to optical shop and had it checked again due to a doubt in axis change,i couldn't see clearly and had to increase power of both eyes by 0.25 for correct vision.
Should i change the axis (to 170°) and go with lower power or continue using the old one that i am using currently (180°)?
Thank you in advance.
