Feeling Off Balance, 18 year old college student?

I am a 18 year old woman, and for about 3 months, I have been feeling off balance. Not dizzy, but a "floating" feeling, I constantly have a floating sensation when I am standing still or walking, especially indoors, places with bright or dim lights, etc, but also outdoors. I went to my primary doctor, she told me I was slightly Anemic, ( 11.0), and she told me my ears seemed fine. I also constantly have very dry, irritated eyes, which causes my contact lenses prescription to change often. Does anyone have any idea what can be wrong? Thank you in advance!

Is there anything wrong with this contact lens?

Today, I got my Cooper Vision Frequency Xcel Toric Contact lenses.

The right eye (-0.75DS, -0.75DC at 10degrees) has perfect vision through the lens. The only problem is the left eye (-0.50DS, -1.25DC at 10degrees).

Whenever I put in the contact lens in the left eye, I can see good for about 30 seconds. Then after blinking twice or thrice, the vision gets totally blurred to an impossible to see level. Like the cylindrical axis is totally reversed. After that, blinking doesn't help.It keeps the vision fixed at that bad point. Now if I rub my left eye over the iris, then the vision gets clear and after 30 seconds, it gets blurred again.

Is there a problem with the lens?
Added (1). I've even tried using another lens from the blister pack. But the problem is the same.
Added (2). Thank you fortje quick reply. But there isn't any problem with the prescription as the same prescription eyeglasses work fine.

Do you get contact lenses right away?

So I'm trying to find out if you get contacts right after your eye test… Or do you have to wait for them to be graded just like yo do with glasses?

Panasonic VHS Playpak?

Ok so i have a Panasonic VHS Playpak, it's the thing that plays the tiny tapes i've recorded on my camcorder in the past. Yes i have a new digital camcorder now but It's nice to look back at your past videos and home movies every now and then and i've been unable to for a while! I have a Magnavox VCR and when i put my Playpak into the VCR it plays only the audio of my little videos :( I am able to watch them on the camcorder but it's so old it doesn't even have a screen that comes out of the side so you have to put your eye on the lens thing and that's no fun..not to mention it has no speakers so you can't listen to it… any idea what's wrong? Should i buy a new Playpak like thing offline or something? I just want to watch old videos hahahaha

Is my idea for corporal punishment any good?

In the U. S, corporal punishment is still allowed in many states.My idea on a new form of such punishment may sounds silly, but please consider it with an open mind before answering.It was inspired by the now-famous series of Twilight movies.In the flims, the actors who played vampires had to wear special contact lenses to simulate red-colored eyes. According to reports, every single person who wore them hated it because they found them VERY painful. The lead actor said that waering them was "like being sent to hell";a T. V show reporter wore them as a joke and remarked that she "just wanted to scratch her eyes out".Now, if a student in school talked back or missbeaved, the teacher could just force them to wear a pair of such contacts for the day. After feeling those painful contacts in your eyes, the student would most likely not act up again! Now, before you dismiss the idea as being mean, let me point out that the contacts dont cause any real injury to the eyes(none of the Twlight actors have gone blind yet!)they just supposed to really hurt. And of course, kids a legitimate eye condition could be excuse from the punishment. But for a good many students, this passive yet painful form of correction could an effective way to maintain order.Am I right?
Added (1). Dee-I admit that you make some very good points against my suggested mode of punishment. Perhaps you are correct in saying that its not practical at this time. But you have to admit that it is superior to the "good-ol-fashion" paddle in one way: the paddle might hurt like crazy for the few seconds that its used(and your bottom may be sore for a while!)but the contacts would put the students in a far more subtle, all-around pain that would be the same ALL DAY. Plus, it wouldnt leave physical marks like the paddle. But Im curious: if, for the sake of argument, there was some way to make my idea for punishment practical, would you have any objections to it then?

Colour contact lenses like Cheryl Cole's eyes?

I love the dark 'doe eyed' look that Cheryl Cole has. Her eyes always look fantastic with lots of black eye makeup and I think it's because her eyes are so dark. I've never felt able to pull off that look with my lighter eyes, I just don't think it looks as good for some reason … are there any good dark brown contact lenses out there that will imitate the dark, almost black appearance of her eyes? Preferably they need to be as natural looking as possible.My eyes are greenish by the way.

Thanks in advance :)

Do they sell red contact lenses like the ones in the Twilight films?

In the now-famous Twilight movies, the actors playing vampires all wear special contact lenses to simulate their blood-red eyes.Do they sell those type of lenses to the general public, and if so, has anyone ever worn them? According the the actors in the flim, the contact lenses were VERY painful and greatly resticted your vision. Are the lenses painful to wear, and if so, how painful are they?(Use a scale of 1-10)If so, exactly how are they painful?(Do they burn your eyes, bore into your eyes, etc) And exactly how much do they hinder your vision?

Im ugly and dont look my age?

Im really ugly, i have frizzy hair and pink glasses and stupidly pale skin and loads of spots and im sooo thin its discusting! My friends always say I look like Im about 5 when actually im 14 and everyone that doesnt know me treats me like a little kid because i look young. Its really annoying because all the other girls in my year are younger than me but where so much make up and are mature and look about 20. I really dont want to wear makeup or contact lenses and I dont have much money to buy clothes. I am quite boyish so i dont have many clothes and they are all presents but im small so i dont fit into my size clothes and i have really small feetso i cant buy nice shoes either. But what else can i do to make myself pretty and look 14! Thanks in advance x
