I’m About To Get Rigid Gas Permeable Contact Lenses, And I’m Wondering If It’s Okay To Play Tennis With Them?

I just had my eye exam almost exactly a week ago, and my optometrist recommended me rgp contact lenses for crisper vision, as I have bad astigmatism. I know the diameter of rgp contact is smaller than a soft contact, thus, will it be easier to… fall out of my eye in a sense?
I’m going to be playing tennis with them, and I can’t afford to lose a contact lens by it coming out of my eye.
Also, how long does it take generally to custom make rgp contact lenses? I have yet to get a call from my optometrist.

Would It Be Okay If I Got Colored Contacts?

Right now I use two weeks Acuvue Oasis contacts. I have slight astigmatism. Over the summer I ordered a my contacts to last me for a year but I am thinking that when its time for me to order a new supply, I buy a set of colored contacts to wear once in a while? I hear the contacts can shift and alter your vision though. Would it be okay to get them?

Okay, I’m Still Confused?

I’m trying to order contact lenses online. (No, I don’t want to go through an optometrist because I want circle lenses.)
But I still can’t figure out what’s the difference between astigmatism and non-astigmatism contacts.
And what is the base curve, diameter measurements for?
Would it be alright if they were off just a little?

Okay. 2 Questions: Are Toric Lenses The Same As “for Astigmatism”? Where Is Cheap?

I’m trying to help my fiancee find new contacts, as his old ones were lost in our move. He got a prescription- and now i’m searching online for the cheapest price. One needs to be plain Acuvue, the right eye however needs Toric lenses. What are toric lenses? They are very expensive- is there a less expensive option out there? are “toric” lenses the same as “for astigmatism”? I’m sorry if the question sounds idiotic, but I have never dealt with this before. Last question is- where are the cheapest contacts online for small quantities? We only have enough money for a 1 year qty- and the month by month contacts are the best. We don’t want to deal with day to day ones. He is legally blind in one eye, so this is kind of necessary and quick…. thanks for the help everyone!!!
