Toric contact lens: what if my axis is different?

For cyl lenses, (-1.75), I have an axis of 135. However they only have 90 and 180 available...

Does it make a difference? And if not, which one should I get?

Another question is: If I only use contact lens in one eye (the other has astigmatism), will the other eye get worse? "lazy eye" kind of effect?

This is the reason that you need your doctor to do your fitting. that is why most of us won't touch this one with a ten foot pole. We know better.

Hope you are not trying to buy contact that are available over the internet. You should see your optometrist to get the correct lenses for your eyes. Only your doctor will know what is best for you and your concerns.
