Consultation regarding contact lenses

Question

Asked for Male, 21 Years

I ordered contact lenses online and wore them for 2 months continously. I have cylindrical powers too but when i ordered i entered only spherical powers and used those lenses for continuous 2 months. Now i found out that i need to wear toric lenses for astigmatism as i have cylindrical powers but when i used the normal leneses, i didn't felt any kind of problem. So i need to order again and i am really confused.
