Medical Forum / General / Vision / August 2007Contact Lens Base Curve
I got fitted for non-disposable Contact Lens 4-5 years back. The doctor fitted me with BC 8.6 & it wasn't comfortable. Then he tried 8.9 & that was great & I have been using it for 4-5 years. Now my vision has changed & I am getting new lens. This doc says that 8.7 would fit me best, because that's the reading his meter is giving him. Should I try the 8.7 or should I just go with the 8.9 which I have been using for so long? > I got fitted for non-disposable Contact Lens 4-5 years back. > The doctor fitted me with BC 8.6 & it wasn't comfortable.

Did your last doc give you some advise in how and when you should replace your non-disposable soft contactlens? 4-5 years of wearing the same lens is not a very healthy idea for your eye.
