I have almost exclusively lenticular astigmatism, and I wear soft torics (Purevision), which correct fairly well–but after hearing about the higher quality optics with RGP’s, I am very curious about “upgrading” my vision. My new OD says that due to my lenticular astigmatism, my desires to wear the Macrolens or Synergeyes, or any RGP’s, are probably not going to work out well. He strongly suggested that sticking with the soft torics–or any lens/eyeglasses with cylinder correction–is the right ticket for those of us with pure lenticular astigmatism… He said he was going to have to research toric RGP’s…
I am picky about my vision and would like to get vision with contacts that is as good and crisp and clear as with my glasses…
Any feedback, suggestions, ideas are most appreciated…!
