Decision between Oasys and SofLens

scienceinproducts · #1 (**permalink**) 01-08-2011, 10:23 PM

Hello,

My optometrist wants me to decide between Bausch and Lomb's SofLens Toric and Acuvue's Oasys. I've tried both, and I find that Acuvue feels thicker, but less blurry than the SofLens Toric.

Any advice?

PS I know there's this same exact thread exists somewhere else. I didn't know there was a subforum specifically for antistigmatism. :P

I think you'll probably get used to the thick feeling you get from the Acuvue lenses. If they give you better vision, I say go with those.

I think Purpleiris is right. If the Acuvue lenses are just unbelievably uncomfortable, then obviously you should go with the others, but I think the lenses that give you the sharper vision are the ones you should use.

So now that you've posted the same question twice, have you made a decision?

I'll buy that. Do that, scienceinproducts.
