Noticed that with new contact, I can see sharp up close, but kind of blurry at any distance beyond 5 feet. Old contact oposite, blurry close up, had to use reading glasses, but could see perfect beyond 5 feet. Usually I send the box back for a new one and it fixes the problem. Not this time. Got the new box, same problem. Just tried the airoptix for astigmatism, kind of the same problem but not as bad. The night vision is not as good with these lens though. Would like to get my proclears to work. Any experts out there had any experience with this??? Thanks
I'm no expert, but have had much the same experience with mine as you are having...I thought I was going nuts. I haven't sent any back, but mine are not consistent from box to box, that's for sure. I just changed mine out again and the right one (multi focal toric) is so floppy that I can barely get it in my eye. The last three weren't like that. I'm so confused. I hope someone who understands how these things are manufactured chimes in here with some ideas to enlighten us. The ones that the optometrist ordered don't seem to be the same as my trials, either. The prescription is the same, but I can't see up close as well. Sigh.
