ok so i have both astigmatism and myopia
i wear regular acuvue contacts
im guessing my astigmatism wasn’t so bad as to the point where i’d need to get them specially made for my eyes
lately
my eyes have been really irritated and red
usually get really bad when i put my contacts on and they bother me a great deal.
could it be possible that my astigmatism has gotten worse causing irritation due to poor fitting contacts?

I have astigmatism, and the doctor tried to fit me for astigmatism lenses, but none of them fit properly, so now I’m just wearing regular Acuvue contacts. I can still see, but it’s not as clear as it should be, but oh well, I’ll live. Now, I’, getting new sunglasses (that I’ll wear on top of my contacts). Is it possible to get non-prescription sunglasses for astigmatism?

Some one told me that most acuvue contacts have an ‘inside-out mark’ that tells you if your contact is flipped or correct – either a 123 or an AV that will read correctly (versus upside down) depending on whether the contact is right or not. Does Acuvue Oasys for Astigmatism have this? I checked my lenses but I can’t see anything like that – the only thing is that line that keeps the contact weighted correctly/ positioned correctly. Anyone actually have the mark?
thanks! i felt a bit retarded trying to find it when everyone was saying it was so easy to see

I have really bad astigmatism, and it’s worsened 70% in one year. I’m also farsighted. The doctor fitted me with SO many different pairs of contacts for astigmatism, and they were all painful and didn’t fit properly. (He said it was because my eyes were different?) Right now, I wear Acuvue soft contacts, so I’m wondering if I can get glasses to go over the contacts (just to wear in school, not all the time)? Personally, I don’t think my astigmatism is horrible, because I can still see (with Acuvue contacts), but the doctor thinks I should do something about it.
