  1. have a look at specsavers website they do lens for astigmatism, is that the same as a squint?

    Toric and multifocal contact lenses also available

    **Base curve** – Also known as the Back Optic Zone Radius (BOZR), measured in millimetres and is a measurement of the radius of the back surface of the contact lens.

    **Diameter** - Also known as the Total Diameter (TD) measured in millimetres and is the total diameter of the contact lens

    **SPH (sphere)** - The amount of long (+) or short (-) sight. The higher the number, the stronger the prescription lens required.

    **CYL (cylinder)** - The amount of astigmatism, or visual distortion, caused by an irregularly shaped cornea.

    **Axis** - The direction of the astigmatism, measured in degrees. If you have a value for axis you must give us a value for cylinder.
