Astigmatism

astigmatism contact lenses

Nowadays, many people with myopia also have astigmatism problems, and their vision will be particularly blurry. When purchasing contact lenses, many people with astigmatism will consider whether they need special astigmatism Con, or whether single vision (pure myopia or farsightedness) contact lenses are enough. In fact, if the degree of astigmatism is not high, you may not need to wear astigmatism Con, because for people with glasses with an astigmatism degree of -0.25 to -0.5, wearing ordinary single vision contact lenses will already have the effect of correcting astigmatism and will not affect the field of vision. For people with astigmatism as high as -0.75, it is recommended to wear astigmatism Con to correct the unclear vision caused by astigmatism.

In the early years, astigmatism contact lenses were usually made from single vision contact lenses. Therefore, astigmatism lenses were thicker than single vision contact lenses, which may be more difficult to adapt to when worn, and the price was also higher. However, as the design of astigmatism Con continues to improve, the feeling of wearing astigmatism Con and single vision contact lenses are no longer much different. In addition, different manufacturers have launched astigmatism Con, and there are astigmatism contact lenses with different life cycles and even colors. Therefore, The price of astigmatism Con is also becoming more and more affordable.
