Default strong astigmatism, has anyone heard of any soft lens's for that?? My doc

My doc says hopefully in the next year or so they will release some with the good technology that the lens's of today have..... Just can't believe there isn't a market for them?
Also found out I can not wear a plain no prescription colored lens due to my astigmatism that lens would not fit properly... so i guess im out of luck?!
-thanks for your help and input

Hi Charismalyn. Just how strong is your "strong astigmatism"? Look around Lens.com and look at lenses that have "toric" or "for astigmatism" in the names. Then check the drop down menu for the "cylinder" measurement and see if you can find anything that matches.

Can you tell us what your prescription numbers are? If you have astigmatism, to wear plano contact lenses would be kind of pointless, wouldn't it? Sure you could change the color of your eyes, but you'd still have to wear glasses. Is that what you had in mind?
