  • Bad Astigmatism, Short Sighted & Dry Eyes

    Hi - I live in New Zealand. I've been wearing Soflens 66 (I thought) for quite a few years now (since approx. 1999), when I look at my current box they are Soflens Toric. Not sure if they are different and this is part of the dry eye problem? I've been wearing contact lenses for about 18 or so years, and have only experienced a problem with dry eye in the last 2 years.

    The lens details I'm currently using:
    Softlens Toric (really bad astigmastism and shortsightedness)
    Sph -6.50
    Cyl -2.25
    Ax 180
    BC8.5

    I'm really struggling to wear contact lenses now due to difficulty in sourcing some that fit properly and don't dry out quickly. Have tried the Pure Vision ones, but they swivel around too much. The ones that were vaguely suitable were Clearly Contacts which come from the States I think, but these have now been discontinued. Have also tried Proclear Torics, but they swivel too much as well.

    Does anyone know of a lens that could be suitable?
