Astigmatism and circle lenses?
Added (1). I just ordered my toric circle lenses, but it will take around 2 months to get here. In the mean time, I need other lenses to help my astigmatism so that I can see. Is there any way i can buy regular circle lenses that will accommodate my eyesight in the mean time?

Social security benefits for visually impaired?

So I've had horrible vision all my life I'm legally blind so my visions like over 20/200 my vision also cannot be correct by glasses or contact lenses anyway I'm pretty sure I qualify for the social security disability benefits for the visually impaired (I've checked the qualifications online already) I just want to know how much money you receive from these benefits is? I get it probably varies from case to case but just a general estimate? Will it be a enough money to make it worth my time to even apply or?

Why are my contact lens making my eye feel cloudy/blurry?

Why are my contact lens making my eye feel cloudy/blurry?
Added (1). I've had contacts for a little over 3 months now, and I've had no issues. For some reason this week, my eyes constantly feel dry and like there's something in them. The vision in my right eye is also slightly cloudy/blurry - ONLY with my contact in. I wear the 30 day Biotin ones, and I just put this pair in less than 2 weeks ago. I also don't sleep with them in and I've been using the Opti-free solution to soak them at night. Any idea what's causing this or what to do about it?

Is drastic change in base curve of colored lens possible?

I have been wearing freshllook colored lens for last 15 years. Recently, my eyes started to get irritable and vision blurry after wearing lenses for few hours to a point that I had to take them off. I saw an optometrist and he told me that my Base curve has changed from 8.5 to 9.0. Unfortunately,1800 contacts doesn't make colored contacts in 9.0 Base curve. Any suggestions where can I order gray colored lenses as I am so used to wearing them. Also, does it seem like a right diagnosis?

I'm nervous to wear glasses?

My eyes have been playing up and I've been delaying an eye test because I'm afraid I'll need glasses. They feel strained and go blurry sometimes.
I like glasses on other people but I honestly think they'd look awful on me. I have a tiny face with "pixie" features like the weird runway models and I'd just look nerdy. People with glasses get bullied at my school & I want to stay off the radar.

I don't want to wear contact lenses though

Help me. I'm really upset & not sure I should tell anyone cause I want to be treated normal

Damaged contact lens?

I got contacts lenses recently and I've been wearing them for about a week. (They are two week lenses.) This morning I saw one lense looked damaged but I was in a hurry so I put it in anyways. I haven't had any irritation problems all day (they're actually really comfy for once) but I don't want to scratch my eye taking them out. I use the sliding method because I can't get them out the other way. What do I do to make sure I don't scratch my eye?

I want to get contacts and I am leaning towards rpg lenses. I was wondering if you need some special sort of eye problem to get those or if my eye doctor will prescribe them to me just because that is what I want even though my only eye problems are bad sight with a little astigmatism.

Where can i get White Screen contact lenses in India?

Any idea, where can i get them in India, that too a prescribed one?
Here's a pic to give you guys an idea of what i'm talkin' bout -
http://www.youknowit.com/online-shop/white-screen-crazy-contact-lenses-pair1460203.cfm

Now lemme tell you, that these lenses actually look like its covering the pupil area but it actually has small pores like openings, which allow us to see.
(They don't cover our pupil totally.)
The reason i'm interested in these lenses is bcoz i have a slight squint in my eyes which is draining my confidence away. So i thought if my eyes are totally white, then my squint won't be visible.
The one that Kane (Wwe Wrestler) wears is called "White out" and i don't like them much coz it shows the pupil. So i wanna have the "White Screen" ones.

I couldn't find any indian website that sells these cool lenses. I even went to the Himalaya opticals website, but they only displayed the boxes of the lenses, like showing the brands they have… And NOT the actual lenses like the varieties of colored lenses they have:(
