What Are The Best Contacts For Astigmatism~2-4 Weekly Or Monthly That Let Oxygen In And You Don’t Feel Them??

There are 2 silicone hydrogel toric lenses available. Acuvue advance for astigmatism (2 weekly) and Purevision toric (monthly).
Both these types allow more oxygen through than other types of soft lenses, so clinically are better than other soft toric lenses.
However, they are not suitable for everyone so if the vision and / or comfort is better with other lenses, continue with current lenses. New silicone hydrogel torics will become available over the next few years and there will be more choice in future.
