Glasses Are Giving Me Headache/making Me Feel Weird. Is It Because I’ve Stuck With Contacts For Years?

admin — Sat, 13 Feb 2010 16:44:01 +0000

For 4 years now, I’ve worn contacts for 16 hours a day. I literally wouldn’t wear glasses. Now that I’m working I can’t afford to be staring at a computer all day with contacts. I got a new pair of glasses but they are making my eyes feel weird and I don’t feel like I can see as sharply (long distance) as with the contacts. Doctor said I had 20/15 with the contacts.
Not sure if they feel weird because:
- I haven’t worn glasses in a long time
-The lenses adjust for astigmatism, but the contacts do not. So my brain/eyes are having trouble adjusting now.
-The prescription isn’t quite right.
Any help is much appreciated.

I have been wearing clear contacts for a year. I have astigmatism and just got my colored grey contacts today and tried them on.(Freshlook) When I put them on it was as if i could see the color of my contacts. Is that normal? Should I wait until they adjust to my eye?

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.
