Hi,
I am using specs from the last 9-10 months(not continous though) for the cylindrical power (astigmatism)
sph cyl axis

R -0.50 -1.50 70
L -0.50 -1.25 100
and recently checked with an optometrist on March of 2007
I asked him that I am interested to have the contact lens since I am not comfortable using those specs. He told he could do that since my cornea is not flat and won’t be having any problem with the fitting of the lens.
He almost tried Accuvue advance for Astigmatism,Bausch and lomb , cooper vision (if iam not wrong) soft contact lens and nothing gave me 100% satisfaction since I find them convenient wearing for some time and in a sec I find everything is blurred for few secs and again normal. Mostly having problem when seeing the computer for a few mins. and when I am in the A/C while shopping in a mall or so.Do I need toseeother doct.
Please suggest.

contact lens for astigmatism?

I have tried Bausch and Lomb SofLens and Frequency Toric. Bausch and Lomb is irritating and Frequency goes blurry every time I blink. I was wondering if Acuvue Oasys for Astigmatism is any better…

If this helps, this is written on my contact lens package:
SPH +0.50
CYL -1.25
AX 050
BC 8.5

There aren’t any contacts made to take care of both problems. Does anyone have the same problem, and have you found contacts that are comfortable? I have tried Bausch and Lomb multi focal and they made my eyes dry out to fast. I tried Accuvue for astigmatism with one contact for distance and one for reading and they were more comfortable and didn’t dry out as much, but I haven’t been able to adjust to the different vision in both eyes. Thanks for any suggestions!
