Any contact wearers with astigmatism here?

[aphex]

What brand contacts to ya wear and how much?

Proclear Torics - $40 a box

 

[isasir]

Sunsoft Multiples Toric Division II (Yup, the severe stuff). LIke $250 for a year's supply (~!).

 

[yellowperil]

I have one in my left eye but not severe enough to require gas-permeables. I have the cheap CibaSoft kinds

 

[LS20]

i wear frequency 55 toric--1 month disposables

these things are 55 per box of 6 i think, so like 220$ for a year's supply.

ive tried a bunch fo the softer 2-week ones, but they weren't stable enough on my cornea

 

[MercenaryForHire]

I wear normal lenses, and have astigmatism. It doesn't seem to affect me really.

Doc told me I had a mild astigmatism,but still gave me the cheapo $49 disposables(with free eye exam-w00t ).
They work great but I hate poking around in my eyeball,so I end up wearing my glasses anyways.

 

[illusion88]

I wear the one month disposible kind. Some toric brand... $30 a box.

 

[LH]

Focus Toric Monthlies. Just a mild astigmatism, that a couple Drs missed. I always wondering why my one contact kept popping out of my eye for no reason.

 

[ElFenix]

accuvue 2s... i don't correct my astigmatism. the left isn't off by much but the right is off enough that i can't read the text i'm typing right now. of course, i'm sitting 3 feet away from a 19" monitor at 1600x1200, not many people could see it anyway.

I have CooperVision encore toric

R: 8.6 / 14.40 -6.0 / -1.25x170
L: 8.6 / 14.40 -6.0 / -1.25x180

I bought 1 year supply and only wore about 2 pairs.. by end of month, I will have my LASIK and Ill never see these again..
hahahahahahaa
ahhahahhahaha

i can't wait

 

[BeeVo]

I wear Accuview Toric lenses which are 2 week disposables. Mine were $310 for a year. I really like them.

 

[Mookow]

Frequency 55 Toric, script reads: -3.25 -.75 x 90

Left eye only, about $50-$60 a six pack

 

[ryzmah]

Coopervision Preference Toric XR (terafilcon A)

Right 8.7/14.4 Sphere -8.5 Cylinder -0.75 Axis 025
Left 8.7/14.4 Sphere -9.0 Cylinder -1.75 Axis 165

I'm blind, but after insurance my contacts are only $250 or so per year for daily wear (switch every 3 months). Biggest problem is my cylinder is so low, it means I can't really get them through a visiondirect or 1-800-contacts.

B&L Soflens 66 Torics here, $20/box.

 

[Platypus]

Yes, acuvue

 

[AvesPKS]

Prosite Torics's, I don't remember how much they cost, I think like 60 bucks for a 6 month supply.

 

[BigSmooth]

Yes, it's somewhat severe, I have to wear hard (gas-perm) lenses. They're expensive but insurance covers most of it and they last a pretty long time. Lose one and you're screwed, though.

 

[cmf21]

For the past two years or so I've used Biomedics55. Cost about $10 a pair which I'm supposed to throw out every month, but I normally go two or so before switching to a new pair.

 

[Viper GTS]

Mine aren't something you can buy off the shelf, each lens is custom lathed for me.

They take two weeks to get, & cost $150 apiece. Yes, for one lens.

I wear some sort of Sunsoft multiples, they're expensive as all hell. I think even with my insurance, it was close to $300 for a years supply

I have a double astigmatism, and I do the same with no problems. However, they told me if it gets any worse, I'm going to need the spensive ones.

Well if I had bought mine from Pearle Vision, I think it'd have cost me like $400 for a year's supply. Hellz no! I got 'em online instead.
