Hi,

I am short sighted in right eye and long sighted (but not very clear) in the left. Maybe astig as well. I think my dominant eye is the right one, so far is bit blurr with both eyes open. I had glasses made many years ago, but only use when driving in unfamiliar places to read road signs. I can't see near items when I put the glasses on, as the near sight in my right eye is affected by the glasses. I wonder if contacts will have same effect. If yes, is it possible to wear contacts for the left eye to see far, but leave the right side as it is or just partial treatment? Also, when I take off the glasses, I need a few minutes to refocus my eyes, as everything goes very blurr for a while. I assume contacts have same effect?

you are above 40?

u can consider multifocal contact lens if you are above 40. no more blur for either distance when u use them.

the Sphere (s) is +9.50? not -9.50 just to make sure.

if its + then yes you need custom toric lens. can private message me if you need a recommended place to do it.

miacare monthly or biofinity is good lens. can wear more than 12 hours, but biofinity harder to remove after wearing long hours.

u r welcome.
softlens 38 is the thinnest lens in market now, made of alphafilcon, 38% water content, so it suits dry eye and usually for experienced wearer because its very soft.

softlens 59 is firmer and thicker, usually for 1st timer, easier to handle esp during insertion and taking off from eyes, cant wear for long hours, max is 8 unless u willing put in eye drops.

yes softlens 38 is for more sensitive eyes. thanks

Hi Jialat

Have been using softlens 59 for a while but find it very dry. Based on the above, softlens 38 sounds suitable as my eyes always dry. Am I right to say that?

Also compare to Biofinity?? or any suggestion for dry eyes, maybe need to wear up to 12 hours a day

yes soflens 38 is better than soflens 59

biofinity better than soflens 38.

highest oxygen yet not too expensive then u can try miacare lens, rm 50 for 3 pieces, monthly.

best is 2 weekly oasys but expensive, rm 100 a box for 6 pieces.

Hi Jialat,
I been using b&l softlens daily disposible for the past few years. How does it compare if I were to change to use clariti silicone hydrogel daily disposable?

clariti daily lens also not very good, i would say no big difference, they claimed silicone hydrogel but its not good enough.

i recommend total 1 day if u want a really good one.

otherwise biotrue one day also much much better than clariti daily.
