Default Contact lenses for people with astigmatism and squint!?

I have worn special contact lenses for people with astigmatism before (hard lenses with correction for cornea and shortsightedness), but they did not work. I still had problems with blurring and had to squint alot to keep them in place as they seemed to move all the time.

I was wondering if this occurrs because my astigmatism is more severe than the lenses can cope with, or if it is due to the fact that I have an alernating squint (Strabismus). Would this effect my contact lense wearing abilities?
If so, should I just bite the bullet and save for LASIK? Or are there (cheaper) er...other ways of fixing my vision apart from glasses?

Thanks!
I meant 'alternating' squint. Me need to learn spell, yes?

I too have astigmatism and I wear Bausch & Lomb's for astigmatism. I really like them a lot. I have more oxygen going to my eyes and don't squint nearly as much. Nice. They are called PureVision.

The alternating stabismus shouldn't be a problem.
(I'm going on likelihoods since I can't actually examine your eyes)
Correcting significant corneal astigmatism can be a problem.
Custom soft toric lenses, I've done them up to 5.00 DC, don't always stabilise.
If the astigmatism is purely corneal (90% of cases) then a rigid contact lens will correct it completely. The problem here is also to get adequate stability of a different sort and a back surface toric lens, while tending to solve that, introduces other optical problems.
If you live where they're available, the synergeyes lens, (a hard lens with a soft skirt) might be worth considering.


"I meant 'alternating' squint. Me need to learn spell, yes?"
Not desperately: you noticed and you care. That puts you ahead of the field.
I'm a Grammar Rommel.
That's like a Grammar Nazi but not so extreme.
I will fight for the forces of good grammar, but I may turn on them if they become too tyrannical.

A new exam and glasses or contacts may solve your situation.

Default 色戒

如这次蜜桃成熟时公映洁本。坊间重提过去曾被本地片商使用过的“先后公映两个版本”的招术。偷窥无罪媒体发展局的相关规定,是同一部戏的第一版必须下片至少一周后,才能上第二版。但免费电影片商当然不会在第一版(通常是删剪版)上片时,玉女心经色戒预先公布未来会公映第二版。
