Why would my optician change contact lens base curve from 8.6 to 8.4?

I was wearing Soflens comfort for 7 years, they were 8.6 BC. A few months ago I changed the brand to Acuvue Oasys(obviously with optician's prescription) and been wearing them for 2nd month now without a problem. Just by accident I noticed that it states BC 8.4 on the pack now. They feel aboslutely fine though. I'm wondering if the optician made a mistake or is this normal to change BC when switching brands. I'm away from home now so won't be able to get to my optician for another month, wondering if I'm ok to wear them.
