Okay, I have astigmatism in my left eye. My eyeglass prescription is "plano /
-75 / x83". I have been wearing contacts, with the left one being a -0.25
sperical to "correct" the astigmatism for about a year and a half. Now, they
switched me to a toric lens (because they no longer prescribe the brand I was
wearing) that is "plano / -75 / 80". I do see better with the lens, and I
have had it for a week now, but I'm still having headaches after wearing it
for a few hours. Is this normal or does it sound like there's something wrong
and needs to be rechecked?
S.W.K.

ive had astigmatism for 5 years now, and yes the headaches are
normal.  but if you have just changed glasses and are seeing clearly
but headaches still continue unitl a month, u have to be checked.
