New glasses, blurry in one eye?

I just got new glasses. Same prescription, different lens. My vision is clear with both eyes open, but when I close my left eye, my right eye is very blurry. And when I close my right, the left is crystal clear. Is this normal?

Should I wear contact lenses for a regular eye exam?

I need to update my prescription, it's been two years since I've done so. It's just when I get ready to pick my frames, I want to be sure they're exactly what I want because in the past, I couldn't see as well when I picked them out and they looked completely different by the time my prescription was put in.

I'm always abused for being ugly in the street and on public tranpsort?

Yesterday I had a ugly man come up and look under my umbrella and peer at me closely, I just looked at him nuetrally because I know they're all psychos. He was hideously tall, dressed in ugly clothing, just disgusting looking. He did a small smile and walked away, i did a small smile, I hated him but didn't let him know. I had a man on a train make his pen** go up and down like my little brother did once as a child, it was tiny, like a child, out of his pants, no one else did anything, then he came up really close to me and looked into my eyes. I just looked neutral at him, another ugly psycho, disgusting contact lens eyes, amber eyes, he went away. I'm sick of being abused as ugly. I had an ugly man in a hideous shiny suit walk towards me sneering, he was fingering money in his wallet, he was hideously tall, very ugly, his suit looked cheap, just disgusting to me, I did nothing, because they're all violent psychos, I have travelled the world and never been abused, the men in my city are just disgusting, they dress in rags, I worked all my life, 14 years, they attacked me at work, I have to go back, they are all trash to me. I have never had a date. Australian men are such losers. I lived in London they are not loosers there. I lost my looks I suppose, they attack me because I lost my looks, they're just disgusting, men, vile pigs, all of them.

Prescription increased by a lot in both eyes what lenses do I need?

My eyes went from -1.00 and -1.25 to -2.25 and -2.75. Not sure what type of lenses I need. Should I get plastic or this new type called polycarbonate?

The assistant at the optical store said I need the polycarbonate because of how bad my eyes are but they're more expensive so I wanted a second opinion.

Also, are my eyes really a lot worse? Is this legally blind?

Does this picture (of corneal neovasc) look real? Should I go for an unscheduled checkup?

1. I was under the impression that neovascularization is mostly unrecognizable by contact lens wearers (hence the need for routine yearly followup with a professional eye care practitioner), This image (NOT mine) has such thick blood vessels, it's impossible for the patient not to see these himself: https://goo.gl/nSNKQv

2. I have some blood vessels, and they are just touching the exterior circumference of the cornea, but have not crept inside the cornea, at least it doesn't look like they've crept in, they're just touching the exterior circumference. Last time this happened, I checked with you guys and a professional eye care practitioner here advised this is normal. I saw my doc anyway (I'm too scared in eye related matters) and he too said this is not a problem and I can continue lens use. And then eventually they faded away on their own. Now they have appeared again, and I'm scared- more so because I'm NOT using silicone lenses as they are invariably uncomfortable to me. I wear them 10 to 12 hours a day, 5 or 6 days a week. They are monthly replaceable.

Here are two pictures of my eyes, if you increase your computer's brightness to moderate levels, you should be able to see the blood vessels:

PS: Can you suggest some tips on how to prevent these weird ugly blood vessels from showing up? They appear from time to time and disappear on their own. Not using contact lenses for a few days seems to calm them down.

What diopter counts do I put in when ordering contacts online that aren t specified for astigmatism?

Hi, i recently got my eyes checked for prescription contact lenses because I wanted to purchase some coloured contacts online from the sites ttdeye/solotica. I found out I have astigmatism in both eyes and I'm not sure how to go about entering my diopter counts when ordering on the website because my optometrist said my vision would be blurry without the astigmatism.

My prescription is as follows:

OD:
-BC: 8.50
-Power: -2.00-1.75x170

OS:
-BC: 8.50
-Power: -1.25-2.25x170

I'm also not sure what each number means. If you go on ttdeye s website, you can see that you can enter diopter counts for lenses with prescriptions but I'm not sure if only inputting OS:-.200 and OD:-1.25 would be the wrong prescription, and I have a feeling it might be. Any help to calculate what diopters I should input would be appreciated!

I ordered contacts with the wrong base curve. Will they harm my eyes?

I ordered contacts online and I accidentally bought the ones with the wrong base curve. I normally wear lenses with an 8.4 BC, and the ones I got have an 8.8 BC. What will be the effect of me wearing the lenses of the wrong size? Will they damage my eyes?
