Filed under FAQ on advance for astigmatism
I went for a contact fitting (first time). My script is only -.75, cyl -0.50 but it is intermittently blurry. I have tried three brands now. He says this is because of my astigmatism and I am out of luck because it isn’t a bad enough astigmatism to correct. Any help?

When I blink one eye feels like the contact moves just a little and the eye doctor said I have astigmatism. Do they make colored contacts for this, and does anyone else have astigmatism?
Can Anyone Tell Me What My Glasses Prescription Means?

I went to the optician today and I need to get some glasses. I have some basic knowledge about ophthalmology as I’m about to be a doctor, so I know the basics about how light focuses on the eye etc etc. And I understand the basic concept of astigmatism and how the eye is shaped more lke a rugby ball than a football….
Anyway, my prescription from the optician is:
R: SPH -1.00 CYL -0.50 Axis 115
L: SPH -1.25 CYL – 0.50 Axis 90
I understand that it shows myopia in both eyes, left slightly worse than right, but what do the other numbers mean? It’s something to do with the degree of astigmatism, but what do they actually show? And what does that mean in terms of my eyes?
Just interested!!!

Can Anyone Tell Me About This Eye Doctor In Cairo?

The Eye Clinic of Dr Ahmed Khalilhttp://www.eyecairo.net/
Does anyone know about him? Is he any good?
I want to get refractive (Lasik) surgery this year. Since this surgery is elective and not necessary, I’d have to pay for it myself. My hope is that I can pay for it while visiting Egypt this year right after Eid ul-Fitr. I did some online seeking, and found the doctor above. Does anyone know about him?
Does anyone know of a really good doctor, whether it’s Dr Khalil or not? It has to be done very well, because I have only one eye – the other was removed back in 1984 – so I have no back-up plan, lol.
I have glaucoma, myopia and astigmatism in the remaining eye. The visual acuity without glasses is 6/22, and I can’t remember what it is with glasses, but it’s anywhere between 6/6 and 6/8.
Any information would be greatly appreciated, thanx.
Has Anyone Tried The Contacts With Distance In One Eye And Near Vision In Another? I Think They’re Too Blury.

The Opt.(Dr.) said I’d get used to them. He said that people dont wear contacts because they give great vision, they wear them so that they dont have to wear glasses. What do think?
I have astigmatism in one eye. I need bifocals.

Does Anyone Have Double Vision At Night When Wearing Acuvue For Astigmatism?

When night driving I see double road signs…and its hard to read them. I never had this problem with my gas permiable lenses or with glasses. I’ve had these contacts for about a month.
