A member asked:

Why is my vision blurry with my new contacts even though its the same prescription from last time?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Check for mistakes: The most common problems are the contacts are different in each eye and got switched. Also check that they are not flipped inside out, the diameter and curvature are the same, and that they are the same brand.
