Medical Forum / General / Vision / March 2007Contact lens prescription change?
My OS contact lens (Focus Toric Monthly) prescription changed from: Sph Cyl Axis BC DIA -2.0 -1.0 020 8.9 14.5 to -1.5 -1.75 180 8.9 14.5 Am I thinking incorrectly that that is a big change in Axis? Is it possible that my doc made a mistake? > My OS contact lens (Focus Toric Monthly) prescription changed from: > [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > Am I thinking incorrectly that that is a big change in Axis?

Axis 20 is only 20 different from 180, but to make sure you might want to call the doctor and confirm.

Big enough for a double-check. Perhaps so. I'm no doctor, but from my limited personal experience, Toric lenses can't even be ordered in fine gradations, and for some people, they rotate on the eye. The difference between 20 and 180 is certainly significant, but I wouldn't call it a big change. |
