Dec 9, 10 0 I'm very happy with my ProClear torics. That said, the best thing I've ever done for lens comfort is when I switched to ClearCare for a cleaning solution. I still use a more traditional cleaner when I travel and I really notice the difference. I'll try clear care, someone else recommended it too. Right now I have replenish. Jul 2, 10, ClearCare is a bit annoying to use, but it definitely helps with comfort. I never noticed a difference in comfort when I switched to soft toric lenses.
Of course, due to the lovely kerataconus that I have developed, I now wear one dime-sized rigid gas-permeable lens and one quarter-sized scleral lens Called the optometrist, she scheduled follow up and also recommended I try a sample of Clear Care before then.
So will be giving it a shot. I will ask her for some daily torics to try as well. Seems like between the time saved and solution cost, would be worth an extra buck or so if I can get a good fit. Hmm, Clear Care did help somewhat. Imp Lifer. Feb 8, 18, You get used to it though, and it's a small price to pay for the extra clarity.
I wanted to kill myself after cheaping out a few years ago and getting regulars instead of toric; everything was a bit blurry.
I just to use some other Accuvue brand that felt pretty good. The new bottle of Replenish I started recently has been burning my eyes in the morning. Might be the cold weather and low humidity, might be the solution. Bateluer Lifer. Jun 23, 27, 7 0. Ran into a similar problem when I wore contacts. Didn't wear them very often or for very long for several reasons.
My astigmatism required torics, which, when combined with my tiny deep set eyes, because very hard to get in. I did like the not having to wear glasses though, so I ended up getting LASIK after a few months of not wearing them contacts.
Nov 22, 1, 0 Torics shouldn't be less comfy than regular spherical lens. I'll second the rec on ClearCare, that helped me out a lot in reducing irritation and the amount of time I could tolerate wearing contacts. If the shape of the cornea is not this smooth and round shape, it causes a refractive error, which is when the light rays are refracted improperly. Astigmatism is not typically a serious matter but it does sometimes affect those who wish to wear contact lenses and in some cases, glasses are a better choice.
A toric intraocular lens is implanted once the cataract has been removed and will correct astigmatism in addition to any pre-existing near or farsightedness. With all of these refractive errors corrected, glasses will no longer be required for distance vision.
A toric lens can rotate out of position , especially within the first few postoperative hours, in any patient, but there are eyes more at risk than others, said Dr. Is it bad to cry with contacts in your eyes? It's safe to cry with your contacts in as long as you avoid touching your eyes. Rubbing or wiping one of your eyes could wrinkle or fold your contact lens, dislodge it from the cornea and cause it to get stuck under the upper eyelid.
Astigmatism can affect your near and distance vision, often causing mild blurring or double vision. We are able to determine the amount of astigmatism affecting your vision during your cataract evaluation. The good news is, if you have astigmatism, it can now be corrected during your advanced laser cataract procedure. Generally, eyes with 1. Q: Can you wear regular contact lenses if you have astigmatism? A: No , if you have astigmatism, it's essential that you wear specialized contact lenses because your condition can worsen if not.
Regular contact lenses do not cover your cornea's entirety, which will impair your ability to see even further. As with almost every single eye condition, astigmatism only gets worse over time.
The main reason for this is that, over time, the astigmatism changes angle and, without glasses or contact lenses at the very least, it only worsens. The main difference between these and regular lenses is the design.
Regular lenses have just one power, but toric lenses have two: one for distance vision and one for astigmatism. But toric lenses are cleverly designed with this in mind, and they are weighted slightly at the bottom, which helps them stay in place.
Gently squeeze the lens as if you were trying to fold it in half. While squeezing, look at the edge of the lens. If it's pointing upwards, or if the edges appear to meet, then the lens is the correct way around. If it bends outwards towards your finger and thumb, then the lens is inside out. Toric contact lenses are often the best choice for contact lens wearers with an astigmatism, because they're specifically designed to address the problem.
The special shape of a toric lens creates different refractive, or focusing, powers that can help correct either a corneal or a lenticular astigmatism.
