However, after proper diagnosis, there are several treatment options from which the doctor chooses the best for each condition; Eyeglasses, <a class=\"rank-math-link\" href=\"https:\/\/metrobrazil.com\/collections\/solotica\">Contact Lenses<\/a>, Laser, Lasik, and PRK are some types of treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-contacts-for-astigmatism\">Contacts for Astigmatism<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Basically, different eye meridians in people with Astigmatism need different amounts of correction to achieve proper light refraction and focus on the retina and clearer vision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are different types of lenses for such issue, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-soft-toric-contact-lenses\">Soft Toric Contact Lenses<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>These toric lenses are made explicitly for Astigmatism with different powers in the meridians of the lens and a specific position to align with the eye&#8217;s meridians.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It requires high expertise for the specialist to fit the soft toric lenses according to each condition, the matter that makes them a bit pricey. However, once fit correctly, they are approved for prolonged use as long as you follow the doctor&#8217;s schedule and recommendations for use and maintenance. They also come in colors for your convenience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Soft toric contact lenses differ from regular lenses with some features:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>They are made from high oxygen-permeable material; <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.metrobrazil.com\/en\/silicone-hydrogel-contact-lenses\/\">Silicone Hydrogel<\/a>, so they are suitable for extended use as they reduce Hypoxia.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The bottom of the toric lenses is a bit cut off.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Toric lenses have thin-thick zones.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Toric lenses can rotate to align with the eye&#8217;s meridians.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-rigid-gas-permeable-contact-lenses\">Rigid Gas Permeable Contact Lenses<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlike soft lenses, rigid gas permeable lenses do not conform to the misshapen cornea. Instead, they maintain their spherical position on the cornea, and their surface corrects light&#8217;s refraction without the need for a toric design to rotate according to the cornea&#8217;s abnormal anatomy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just like Soft lenses, rigid gas permeable lenses are made of Silicone, which gives them high oxygen transmissibility. In turn, it makes them suitable for prolonged wearing as they let the cornea breathe and reduce Hypoxia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rigid Gas Permeable contact lenses have been used to treat mild to moderate Astigmatism successfully. However, for severe cases, a toric design can be added to them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many patients reported clearer vision when using these types of lenses. Yet, some could not adapt to the sensation of wearing them since they are not soft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just like Soft Toric lenses, fitting Rigid Gas Permeable lenses requires high expertise and even more, making the process a bit pricey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-hybrid-contact-lenses\">Hybrid Contact Lenses<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Each of the types above has its downside; Soft Toric Lenses may disposition, and rigid lenses can be uncomfortable. Therefore, scientists came up with Hybrid Lenses, which have the advantages of the two above mentioned types.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Hybrid Lenses, the core is made of the same material as the Rigid Gas Permeable lenses, giving it the ability to maintain a proper shape to correct the cornea&#8217;s abnormality. This core is then coated with a Soft Silicone Hydrogel layer to make these lenses more adaptable for people to wear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Again, fitting these kinds of lenses needs high expertise. They cost about as much as Rigid Lenses and are as durable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-which-type-of-contact-lenses-is-better-for-astigmatism\">Which type of Contact Lenses is better for Astigmatism?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There is no one best lens type for Astigmatism. When having a distorted vision, you should see a doctor for a comprehensive eye exam, in which the doctor diagnoses the condition and determines the best approach for treatment. If settled on treating Astigmatism with contact lenses, the doctor calculates the problem&#8217;s degree and picks the best type of lenses to prescribe. There are several factors to consider, and as mentioned before, it takes high expertise to measure and fit the lenses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Read More: <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.metrobrazil.com\/en\/lenses-to-make-eyes-bigger\/\" class=\"rank-math-link\">contact lenses to make eyes bigger<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Don&#8217;t forget to visit <a href=\"https:\/\/metrobrazil.com\/\" class=\"rank-math-link\">MetroBrazil <\/a>store for high-quality contact lenses.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Astigmatism is a refractive error that occurs alongside shortsightedness or farsightedness. so how to choose contacts for astigmatism ?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":161,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_gspb_post_css":"","_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[3],"class_list":["post-101","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-contact-lenses","tag-contact-lenses"],"blocksy_meta":{"styles_descriptor":{"styles":{"desktop":"","tablet":"","mobile":""},"google_fonts":[],"version":6}},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.2 (Yoast SEO v27.3) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Contacts for astigmatism : Which Contact Lenses are better? | METRO BRAZIL Blog<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Living with astigmatism?
