Rgp Toric Contact lenses prescription, Can they work anywhere?

Unfortunately I lost one of my rgp contacts so Im in the need of a replacement. I found on discountcontactlenses they have rgp for a real cheap price~$40, However Im not sure if this will work for me. My prescription has Bc, Power and Diameter. Is that enough for the right fit? Im confused because the doctor charged me $500 dollar for the pair of RGP and I dont want to have to spend $250 to get a replacement from him. I also dont know why there is no cylinder value as opposed to my soft contact lenses prescription.

Thanks

If I have great eyeglass lenses do I still need sunglasses or transitions lenses?

I have two sets of glasses, both are essilor 1.6 single vision 360 eyecode. One has prevencia coating and one has sapphire coating (both crizal)

Since the lens material and coatings block all uv, what benefit would having sunglasses be if I don't find my eyes sensitive to summer light.

What do these numbers on my glasses prescription mean? Is it a really strong prescription?!

I don't think my vision is that bad, but the way the opticians were acting today made me feel like I was almost blind. They were saying I needed to pick big frames because the lenses are going to really heavy because of how strong they are. They also had to get my prescription verified by this women because it was "so strong."?

My prescription is:
Right eye: sph +2.75 cyl +2.50 axis 90.0
Left eye: sph +4.00 cyl +1.50 axis 85.0

What does all of that mean?

Compensation of curved glasses (+0,5 cylinder)?

Hello, I've ordered glasses online, about -6D for each eyes).
I see fine with my left eye, but the right one is a bit blurry, and seem to see less than with my old glasses.

An optician measured -6D (+0,5) for astigmatisme [I'm only myopic]

After I contacted the company, they told me it might come from the compensation from the curve.
Is it normal?
As a consequence, they proposed to make new lens, but this time without compensation (as they said in few cases patient may not handle the compensation).

What are the risks in term of vision issue (blur, prismatic effect?) from curved glasses without compensation?
Thank you

Can I put my contact lenses back in after they have dried out?

I am a new contact user, so I got a bit clumsy. I was in a rush to go and I had one contact in and one out. I scooped up my other in a rush, but it fell out of my hands before I could get a grasp on it. It fell somewhere on the counter but I couldn't see it. So I tried taking my other one out so I could put my glasses on and look for it, but my other one fell somewhere on the counter where I couldn't see it as well! By this time my ride was going to leave without me so I threw on my glasses and left, I was really mad that they were lost. While I was out (for about 2 hours), my cleaning lady came and found them, I was so thankful, but they were all dried up! I put them back in the solution ASAP, and am really hoping I can wear them for the rest of the month before I throw them out. If I let them soak, will they be all right to put back in again? Help! Please! Thanks

Why can't I clean my contact lenses?

it seems if I go a day without cleaning my contact lenses and just putting them straight into new solution they're fine but if I put them on my palm, pour solution over them and rub them, they end up dirtier than before, and when i put them in my eye the next day it's too irritated to keep in. I'm not sure why this is or if it's maybe soap still on my hands perhaps but they have dots and bits which don't seem to come off. Thanks:-)

Is it normal for my eyesight to change three times in one year?

I usually have an eye exam every October. I had one in 2013 and there weren't very many issues, the doctor only said that my prescription had changed quite a bit. Then a few months later, in March 2014 I felt a lot of discomfort with my contact lenses and my regular glasses. Went back to see my eye doctor and she told me my prescription changed again.

I had an issue with my eye doctor because in the span of two weeks I had 3 tests, each of which had a different prescription. Turns out her receptionist gave me an OLD PRESCRIPTION. Ridiculous! And I only noticed until after I had got TWO frames re-done and paid out of my pocket.

So my contacts are the right prescription, but my glasses aren't. NOW I'm starting to get headaches again when I wear my contacts and I can't see clearly. Is it normal for my eyesight to have changed this many times during one year? Does wearing the wrong prescription have anything to do with it?

The discomfort is not convenient at all. I wear my contacts at work and I'm dying to take them off by the end of my shift. Even when I'm at school, I can't wait to get home and take them off. Also I'm 22 years old (female), so it's not like I'm going through drastic bodily changes at this age.

Toric lenses power less than prescribed eye power?

Following are the eyepower details for my eyes

Right Left
Sphere 2.00 2.50
Cylinder 1.50 1.00
Axis 180 162

I couldn't find contact lenses online that match these details. Bausch and Lomb suggested lenses with a cylinder of 1.25 for my right and 0.75 for my left. I just wanted to know how much effect this difference would have in my eyesight.

Thanks!

How to Keep Contact Lenses Moist Overnight?

Why did my circle lenses get STUCK on my eye?

I know that if you don't have the right diameter for the lenses, they will move because they don't fit you eye. But how much is it suppose to move when they do fit your eyes? For example, when you look up will they move downwards?

Oh and why did my contact get stuck on my eye? Literally stuck, I had to try and pinch it off. I was stuck on the cornea, and I thought it was going to move back to the iris, but it didn't. It just sat there, and was literally 'stuck' on my eye. I tried moving it with my finger, but it stayed still. I thought it was just the faulty lenses, so I tried it again a few minutes after with a different one. And it happened again… :( please help me, or tell me what's wrong!

Blurry vision after taking out hard contact lens?

I wear hard contact lens overnight, the ones that correct your vision. When I am wearing my right contact lens, my vision is perfect. Even when I wake up the next morning it's perfect. However, when I take my contact lens off, it is slightly blur and stays that way the entire day. My left eye is fine. Anyone know what's up?
