Can I Order These Contacts With My Prescription?

Filed under FAQ on advance for astigmatism
My regular contacts prescription:
(LEFT) BC 8.5 SPH -1.50 CYL -0.75 AX 170
(RIGHT) BC 8.5 SPH -0.50 CYL -1.25 AX 180
The colored contacts that I’m ordering:
Power (OD) -1.50 Power (OS) -0.50 CYL ???
The problem is that you can only put one CYL value, but I have two different CYLs.
The reason I want to order from this site is that there are not many options available online for toric colored contacts, and I don’t have to order like 3 pairs all at once (like when you’re ordering from eye doctor)
If I HAVE to, I WOULD order 2 pairs just so I have 2 for each eye, but that would cost double the money.. and i haven’t even tried it out yet.
So.. if for example I just put -0.75 for both eyes will it really blur the vision? Only thing I know is that CYL is for astigmatism.. well i don’t even know what that is lol..
Please do not say go to the eye doctor.. I’ve been to several doctors and glasses/contacts places and i dont think i want to pay like $400 all at once for like 3 pairs..

Hi,
Ive just got an eye test. Result was sph -0.5 for each eye and slight astigmatism in one of the eyes (i forgot which one). The optometrist was going to give me prescription glasses (to help driving at night) but i thought that i did not need one. They usually jack up the price anyway. So, the question was do i need glasses?

Eye Twitch Won’t Go Away, Even After Prescription Eye Drops And Glasses…what Is This?

I’ve had a couple checkups with an eye doctor and she said my eyes were extremely dry and I had a slight astigmatism – I hoped this would cure the twitch that happens countless times a day in my left upper lid. It’s been about 2 months and the twitch is still there. No sign of a tumor or anything, what else could this be? It’s so aggravating.

Filed under FAQ on advance for astigmatism
so here the thing,i went and got my eyes examined this year knowing that i can finally get contacts because i am very active and play alot of sports and glasses seem to get in the way alot. when i got my prescription my doctor said it was quite strong plus i have a astigmatism. So now i am being told my only option is non disposable contacts,why is this? which will still be hard for them to get with my prescription. i would like to know a approx price that they will be cause if i only have one pair of contacts im sure i would be quite expensive if i ended up loseing them. all answers are apreciated. thnx

If You Put In Non Prescription Colored Contacts And You Put Them In And You Have Astigmatisms What Will Happen?

Ohkay, I have non prescription colored contacts and I want to wear them but I have slight astigmatisms in one eye and I’m afraid what will happen. If anyone knows what will happen can you tell me, I don’t want to hurt my eye. (P.S. Don’t worry about the vision, I’m blind in that eye anyway)
