Does anyone wear contact lenses

Question

and how strong r they and did anyone have any problems wih the sight test and how hard is it really far

Answer 1

Contacts are great! you have no problems of having to adjust yourself because they've fallen too low on your nose.  The only slight disadvantage is when they get dry ( which only happens if you like...never blink).  The sight test is like any other test...no biggie, they just need to know your prescription.  As in seeing far lengths...it helps you a whole lot

Answer 2

Yes I hate them.

I wear gas permeables - the more solid ones. I was advised to get these cos you can wear them longer however, I wanted to try the soft ones and was told that the GPs have now "flattened" by eye ball so no other type will sit on them! Grr.

My eyes are -5.

Answer 3

I had toric lenses for many years.  Toric lenses are for prescriptions with an astigmatism.  Astigmatism is when your cornea is shaped more like a football than a baseball.  The power is different at different parts of the lens.  If the lens doesn't sit properly on the eye, then it is like a camera lens and everything can be out of focus.  I had trouble with my lenses staying where they should be, so sometimes (especially at night) I would have blurry vision.  Toric lenses are also more expensive than standard lenses.  You can't purchases them in daily.

However, if you don't have a high astigmatism, you should be fine with contact lenses.  For most people, their lenses are only one power (sphere) and it doesn't matter if the lens floats on your eye.  

Talk with your optometrist.  He/she can give you a trial pair to see if you like it and check your vision.  Most people see just as well with contacts as they do with glasses.

Answer 4

Answer 5

how strong they are depends on your prescription

when i wear contact lens everything is alot sharper and clearer than when i wear glasses

Answer 6

I wear a purevision toric lens in my left eye and my right eye has no correction.  My right eye can easily pass the sight test at the DMV so I do not have the corrective lens restriction.  My left eye does not pass the test without correction.  I choose to correct my vision to improve my depth perception.
