Haven’t Taken My Contacts Out For 2 Months, What Is The Inevitable?

I’ve been wearing contacts for about 2 years. They’re the type that i’m supposed to take out nightly and replace them monthly. i have an astigmatism, whatever that means.
so anyway, i have an extremely bad habit of never taking my contacts out! i’ve been wearing my left contact for about two months now (i always end up taking my right ones out because they hurt my eyes, i think they might be a wrong fit idk.) and nothing has happened. they never get too dry, or irritated or anything.
For people who have done this before, what is inevitably going to happen to my eyes? will i lose my tolerance for contacts once my eyes freak out? I’m going to really start trying to take them out. i promise!

What Other Contacts Are There For A Difficult Astigmatism? Tried So Many. Do I Have Other Options?

I wore gas perms for 10 years but am now no longer able to wear them because I have developed very dry eyes. I have been trying soft toric lenses for months changing prescripton and brand and nothing is working. I have a very strong prescription about -6.00 and my astigmatism is wierd in one eye, axis 50. I have tried oasys, they would hang too low. Purevision and Softlens are too dry and sticky. Air optics burn my eyes and my vision is unclear. Pro Clear was uncomfortable. Anybody have any ideas? I have been trying trials for 4 months now. I don’t want to wear my coke bottle glasses. I’m very glad that my doc is trying so hard for me but I am thinking he is about to tell me there aren’t any there options. Help.

What Is Astigmatism? ?

What Do The Numbers Mean On Your Contact Lense Rx?

Can any one explain what the numbers on your prescription?
I know that 20/20 is perfect vision, but when the numbers are negative numbers, explain what it means and when your eyes are really really bad, meaning that you can’t see your own hand if you hold it straight out in front of you (without your contacts or glasses of course) what would your numbers be to be considered legally blind?
when I say that you can’t see it I don’t mean that you can’t see anything, but if you had a paper in your hand, you probably couldn’t see what was written on it even if it was the size of the biggest letter on the eye chart. and while I’m asking, I thought of another question
If you wear corrective lenses all the time, do your eyes become dependent on them, meaning that they will never get stronger, almost like building an immunity to antibiotics?
Wow, I think I confused myself on that one, but if you understand what I was trying to ask, answer please. I hate wearing contacts and glasses just the same, considering lacik surgery, but was just curious about all this stuff, and oops sorry, another question, is there any thing different I would need to do besides ask my eye doc about the surgery? meaning is there any waiting period, or anything that he will make me do before he can recommend, or do the surgery. once I decide, I am a very impatiant person, and don’t like to wait, I like instant gratification. I also have an astigmatism will that be a factor in the surgery, meaning that I couldn’t have it done.
sorry so long, I started asking, and a dozen more questions popped into my head =(

Will This Change What I Need Glasses For?

A couple years ago, I got glasses for reading. Recently I went to my eye doctor and he told me that I had a slight astigmatism in one eye…does this mean I will need to wear my glasses all the time, or will I still only need them for reading?

Confused About What Type Of Contacts To Get [points To Best Answer]?

I have really bad short-sightedness (myopia) and quite bad astigmatism. I think I have to get toric lenses (that is what the optician said) because of the astigmatism but will any type work for the astigmatism AND the myopia or will they only work for the astigmatism.
I doubt I’ll get any answers so thanks if you help!
