Contact Lens Trouble?

Filed under FAQ on advance for astigmatism
I have worn Accuvue Advance (1 with astigmatism) for over a year now. But some medication I have to now take is causing me to have problems with dry eyes/fuzzy vision. My optometrist suggested trying Accuvue Oasys. The new lenses however are even worse. She also suggested a particular eye drop (Blink N Clean) which helps better than Visine but not well enough. What would you try next? With the Advance lenses everything is fuzzy by mid-afternoon but the Oasys didn’t even make it to lunch.
I have dry eyes with contacts too, my doctor had me try Proclear (dailies) and I find them to be more comfortable than other brands I’ve tried. Not perfect, but better.
I had the same problem a couple of years ago. I tried all different brands, but they would all be cloudy by midday, turn my eyes red, or sting. The only lenses that I found to actually stay clear, stay hydrated, and not move around, are Soflens 66. Give them a try. Some people either love or hate them. But if they work for you, you’ll love them. Good luck.
