Contacts ...?


I use Acuvue Advance for Astigmatisms currently, but I really want colored contacts. My doctor could only find one brand that was for astigmatisms & came in colors, but they were $200 a pair. Does anyone know of any brands that have them for astigmatisms? Thanks!

My doctor told me the exact same thing, and I use the same brand of contacts as you! I guess this means there really arent any cheaper ones out there...if cost is your concern.

I use Acuvue for Astimagtism but I don't have astigmatism, its just for the shape of my eyes. I asked my eye doctor whether I could get color contacts but he said there were none, so you are lucky that your doctor found a pair for you. $200 is a bit much though. However, chances are those are the only option you have.

freshlook toric colorblends is the only disposable i know if, and it has very limited parameters (plus its not a very good product IMO)

everything else is non-disposable
