Contact Lens Power
Currently I'm wearing glasses with power: SPH:
-5:00 CYL: -1.25 Axis: 180.
I want to use B&L contact lens for the first time. On their website the equivalent contact lens power should be: SPH: -4.75 CYL: -1.25 Axis: 180, but in the shop from where I am ordering the contact lenses from is saying that this power should be: SPH: -4.75 CYL: -0.75 Axis: 180.
How much difference is there between CYL -1.25 and -0.75 in case of visibility when it comes to contact lens? Should I go with the shop's recommendation of Cyl: -0.75 or ask them to give me Cyl -1.25?
