I have terrible vision, astigmatism, and scarred corneas. My eye doctor put soft contacts on me about 4 years ago (wore hard lenses before), and now I have 20/25 vision, the best of my adult life.
I get a 6 pack of monthly lenses every 6 months. My fit fine, and I usually put them in, sleep in them too, and change them every month. I wear
Bausch and Lomb Pure Vision lenses.
I tied to play pool in glasses 2 times, and it was terrible. I play fine with contacts, and have no problem seeing the balls.
This is very interesting to me.
My last eye doc told me that it would be a pain in the tookus for me to use contacts, since I had an astigmatism. Add to that my own concern about daily care (and my lack of ability to do so properly) and I never tried them.
I decided a few months ago that I was going to try a new eye doc this year, and you've cinched it for me. Now to find one that my insurance will cover....
