Help! My contacts prescription says Medium instead of a number, and 1800 contacts has 8.70 and 8.30 only

Question

So which one should I choose closest to medium?

Answer 1

You shouldn't make a choice. 1-800 contacts is legally required to call your doctor to find out and verify prescription information. I would also call your doctor so that you know what that means in the future. I would advise against just picking something; your eyes are so delicate and you only get a pair!

Answer 2

That word must be " median"...not " medium "

In which case, it would be the 8.7

Median is always 8.6 or 8.7 depending on the brand.

As long as you are trying to order the same brand as on your prescription, there shouldn't be any problem when they call to verify.

Answer 3

Call them and ask them.
