It may take you several days to a couple of weeks to get used to them (even longer if they're rigid lenses).  As long as they aren't severely impairing your vision, try them out for a little while, then address your concerns with your eye doctor at your follow-up visit.

Hard and soft contact lenses are prescribed and fit differently.  (You can't just take your hard lens prescription and order soft lenses from it.)  Astigmatism in general is correctable with either type of lens.  Only your eye care provider can tell you if soft lenses will work for you, so make an appointment to see your optometrist or ophthalmologist.  You should also be sure to have a yearly complete eye exam to make sure that there aren't any problems with your contact lenses and to check the overall health of your eyes.

I have the same problem, I just found out I need glasses for it, but also for distance and stigmatism.  Nice combo, basically I need bifocals at the age of 25. :(  But the doc did say the computer is bad for the eyes, so every 20 minutes, you should look 20 feet away and look at that place for 20 seconds. 20/20/20.  It is supposed to help your eyes refresh.  Sleeping a full night helps too, don't forget to blink, use drops if needed.  The problem with computer screens is that each tiny pixel in the screen is moving on its own, almost flickering.  We can't see it because the flicker and pixels are so so small, but the eye needs to use more energy to focus on that screen, thus damaging your eye sight.  Get glasses, computer glasses, they are supposed to help, I am waiting to buy mine because I don't have eye insurance in 2006, but will sign up for it in 2007.

I wore contact lenses while surfing.  You can do it, but you have to be very careful and be prepared to lose them.\n\nGood Luck

I don't think wearing contacts makes it worse. In an old wives tale, carrots made your vision better. You can get a lasar procedure to make you not have to use glasses or contacts!

if you are nearsightedness this sight will probably help you.\n\n\n\n\n\nreversingnearsightedness.com

Yes. Eye contact can be very intense and speak for itself.

I wear Contacts. It will be better so you will be able to see all your blind spots clearly without your glasses getting in the way.

I have astigmatism and I use Acuvue 2. No problems at all! I even sleep with them sometimes.

I wore contact lenses for 31 1/2 years and tri-focal glasses for 10 years.  My vision was 20/1000!!!!! I had lasik surgery last September and found it to be a miracle!!!! My vision is 20/25 and I can read things I was not able to read since I was a small child!  There are NO aftereffects whatsoever.  This procedure does not last a lifetime, and will necessitate further procedures (depending on the original-blade or bladeless surgery) and maybe that is where the silliness of causing blindness in old age comes from.  I would SERIOUSLY consider a consultation.  They are usually free and will answer all of the questions YOU have.  In the long run, it is a small price to pay for sight!

It's true, trillian let's you do that. Theoretically, so does Paltalk but I can't get mine to work right.

Try AMO Complete solution. You should check with your eye dr. before resuming contact lens wear though.

Hi, \n\nThis is simply because your contact is on a bed of water, on your eye... DO NOT WASH AND THEN PUT BACK IN YOUR EYE!! THIS CAN LEAD TO BLINDNESS!!\n\nSimply use the special spray that you would have been given... Can I ask do they fit or has your optician made an error?\n\nThanks!!\nHope that helps...

well the doctor is probably going to make a regular check up on your eyes to make sure they are ok and everything, and then he/she determines the size of your contact depending on the size of your iris...so then you try on a pair and he checks to see if they are the correct fit (my doctor uses this machine thing that gets really close to your eye, im not sure what it does exactly) and then the doctor or something else teaches you how to take care of the contacts and put them into your eye...

I wore contacts for about two years, and I had horrible habits with them; I had the "Night and Day" kind, but I would keep them in for up to two weeks at a time. I used the "No rub" solution, but barely cleaned them, and didn't put fresh solution in the case.  I ended up getting multiple ulcerated corneas in each eye, and can no longer wear contacts for more than one day out of every two weeks at the most.  I also have at least three scars in each eye, not to mention the extreme pain and light sensitivity I experienced when the infection was still there.  However, I'm lucky to still have my vision and the ability to wear contacts, no matter how infrequently.  Basically, keeping your contact lenses absolutely pristine is extremely important.
