Contact lens
I am planning to purchase contact lens and i have a cylindrical power of -0.75 for right eye and no cylindrical power for left eye.
And the optical store guy has suggested toric lens for right and a normal lens for left eye..
so is it okay to purchase 2 different lenses

even regular spherical lens cover cylindrical error upto 1D.but if your k1 and k2.aredifferent and you are not comfortable wit spherical lens then offcourse you will have to use toric lenses.there is no problem in using toric and spherical lenses in either eye.
