Hi, you need to see keratoconus lens specialist in Usj Optometrist. They are located in taipan subang jaya.

I always buy my lens at those who are selling Korean lens since it is cheaper & comfortable to wear. Usually, I wear them up to 1 month then dispose it.

Vision Space Optometrist has the proper equipment to check your eyes compared to a normal Optical shop. I was recommended by an eye specialist then I only know this shop exist lol I've ordered my high index spectacles and custom contact lenses there cause my eyes power too OP ~ left eye 1400+ and right 750+

They also provide free medical check-up every year if you buy spectacles or contact lenses from them. Just purely check-up will cost RM150.

Go to this branch cause their founder also works there - DR Woon Pak Seong. You can request him to help you too if you like.

They also provide free "eye" check-up every year not medical ya lol. My bad.

Hey jialat, can plano soft contact lens be made smaller than the corneal diameter just like rgp lens? Any possible issues since if it is not used for vision correction?

hi, normal cornea size is around 11.5mm, yes you can customize the soft lens to 11.0mm.

rgp is even smaller, but soft lens move much more than rgp, a smaller lens will tend to dislocate easily, thus its not a good idea.

Want to try contact lens but didnt have courage to try it hehe..

I have been using miacare and optix for the past 5years. Thinking to change to a different brand since there are so many new technology contact lens out there..i’m thinking to change it to bausch lomb ultra? Any thought on this brand?

Ultra is no better than miacare or air optix.

Oasys biweekly lens is much better. U should give it a try. Thanks

Thank you so much for your kind input..
I shall consider oasys bi weekly after this..
Read some rave reviews on ultra, glad i get my advise here before buying in bulk..

i am new to contact len. For monthly type, do we have to change the solution everyday? or how long can we keep the len in the case without changing the solution? As i am not a daily wearer , i just wear for sport only mayb 3-4 times per week. is ok to only change 2-3 days 1 time as i find it teadious to change everyday

If you mean take out from your eyes and soak in the same used solution, that's a big no-no! There's a high risk of contamination from handling your lenses.
But if you mean using fresh solution to soak the lenses after cleaning, and then keeping them in the case for a few days, that's ok.

Thanks .I meant the latter one. As when i just bought the contact len to try out , the person told me to take it out and clean and change the case solution everyday.so i find it is very tedious after doing few days and wondering if necessary do it every day.

If you take out the lenses every day, then got to clean and soak in fresh solution every day too.

Bear in mind too that, once the bottle of lens solution is opened, you are supposed to use it up within 30 days...

i do not plan to take out to wear everyday but the sale person asked me to take out to clean and change the solution everyday.


Did not know that once bottle of solution open need to use up wihitn 30 days. if i bought a large bottle surely gg cannot finish if like that.thanks for the info.

Hi all , I am new to contact lens and I am thinking to purchase it as well. My SPH is -0.75 and CYL is -1.5 with my left eye. While my right eye has SPH of -0.75 and CYL of -1.25. I think I need a toric lens, maybe ?

I think I would wear it during sports or as usual too.

Could anyone recommend which brand of contact lens that would not break the bank as I am still a student.... Thanks !!!

Go for monthly toric lens, high oxygen material. Either air optix toric or biofinity toric, both are equally good. U can pm me for price if u interested. I can give u student discount.

Hi, i am trying to switch from glasses to contact lens recently.
i am using clariti 1 day toric, but after around 3 hours putting on the lens, my eyes turn red at the sides and my eyes feel strained/tired, but the sclera near the pupil still white though, just can see the red nerve appears at the back of the eyes.

my eyes tend to dry easily even without lens.

should i change my lens or i should try using lens drops like blink-n-clean?

please change the place you get the lenses from

wrong lens, wrong power

dry eyes not suitable to use daily lens which has high water content to draw more tears from your eyes

eyes feel strained and tired, means wrong power

I have dry eyes as well, does that mean I am not suitable for Acuvue Moist Daily with astigmatism? I thought Moist is supposed to provide water to your eyes instead of drawing more tears from your eyes


I am thinking either to buy daily Acuvue Oasys or Moist with astigmatism
