Continuous wear contact lenses for those with astigmatism
4 Answers
Is such a thing available?
I have used monthly disposable torics but ideally would like daily ones which I don't think are available. I'd be interested in the continuous wear ones but my eyesight would have to be pretty sharp with them.

She reckoned it would probably be a couple of years yet before they were commercially viable. I understand that this is because they have to be weighted at the bottom of the contact lense to stop them moving about.
I have astigmatism in my left eye and wear Acuvue daily disposables. I have quite dry eyes and he felt these were the best contact lenses for dry eyes. He just got me some trial ones to see what would happen and they were completely fine! (When I was a teenager I was told I'd never be able to wear lenses, but I went on to wear gas permanable ones for 10 years with no problems).
