Sudden change in vision

[ronslav]

I'm a healthy 31 year old male - In May I got new contacts (different brand - Biofinity) for the first time in more than 5 years but same prescription.

In June my eyes started to 'feel funny' trouble focusing etc ... in July I went back to the lens crafter's doctor and he said my vision changed from +3.25 to +2.50 Left Eye and +2.50 to +1.75 Right Eye.

Its been two weeks with this new prescription and my eyes are feeling funny, having trouble focusing and my lazy left eye which has been corrected with contacts in the past is confusing my vision.

This seems like a dramatic change when my prescription has been the same for more than 10 years is there something else going on?

Thanks,
Ron

Probably bad contact fitting or intolerance to the type of contacts. My eyes are very difficult to fit contacts and I have similar problems if I change brands, tweek the Rx etc.

Sorry you will need to work through this one with the Optom at Lenscrafters or see an Eye MD. Find one at www.aao.org
