I definitely DO NOT want to purchase the toric lenses because the are so much more expensive and do not offer many colors / styles. My perscription is as follows
Left
BC: 8.7
SPH: -4.50
CYL: -0.75
AX: 90
RIGHT
BC: 8.7
SPH: -4.50
CYL: -0.75
AX: 80
Can anyone tell me from personal experiences where you or someone you know or heard of ordered GEO Circle Lenses (I’m getting mine from lenscircle.com) despite having astigmatism and it worked out for you / them?
and about the BC…my BC is 8.7 and the GEO ones I believe are sold at a standard 8.4
Also, if anyone knows, can you tell me how bad (in laymens terms of course) I do have astigmatism?

i just went to the eye doctors the other day and i have just found out that i have an astigmatism. i was planning on getting a pair of circle lenses (color contacts that are slightly bigger then the iris of your eye to make your eyes look bigger) but i dont know if i can order them anymore. ive heard that you can get some for asigmatisms but they dont come in a lot of colors but ive also heard that if tastigmatismism is juslightigh that you can just get regular ones. my prescription is
right eye: -1.75
left eye: -2.00 CYL: -0.50 AXIS: 171
does that mean i have a slight astigmatism. if so, should i just get regular circle lenses. thank you for any answers!

Would I have to order contact lenses for astigmatism for that eye and get normal contacts for the other? I want my eyes to be the same color and I haven’t found a brand that has the same colors for both astigmatism and regular eyes. I have dark eyes, also.

I’ve been wanting to get circle lenses for close to a year now and have been researching the last couple of weeks on brands, colors and types. I have astigmatism in both eyes and am near sighted (I believe that’s the right term – basically everything further away is blurry) and I have been hearing a lot of rumors about circle lenses and astigmatic people.
I wear glasses daily and have used regular contact lenses before, but I was wondering on if toric lenses are actually needed to be bought? Ive read that some people don’t even use toric lenses and just get regular prescription circle lenses. Is this okay? I know that the Nudy and Angel series are supposedly a better fit, are there others?
And the last bit is that, I was reading on how people were inputing their prescriptions when buying their lenses and what I don’t understand is whether you’re supposed to do the whole take the half value of your cylinder value (i believe that’s the one) and add it to the spherical value thing, does that mean a better fit? Or a better prescription?
My prescription is:
O.D. -2.75 -0.50 135
O.S. -1.50 -0.50 50
SPH CYL AXIS
Quite a confusing business these circle lenses. It’d be much appreciated to hear from fellow astigmatics circle lens wearers and their experiences, and also from any professionals in the Optometry field. Thank you!

I know that FreshLook carries a few colors for people with astigmatism, but I don’t like their choices. I like colours with more intensity. Do you know of any other brands? I’ve asked my optometrist, but they never really answered my question.
