Why am i having trouble seeing out of one eye with contacts?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Many causes: Any vision loss should be evaluated by an eye doctor, because the contact lens may be fitting improperly causing corneal swelling or even infection. Other possibilities include a defective, old, damaged or wrong powered lens. The lens might not be the correct power or type of lens for the eye. For example there might be some uncorrected astigmatism which would be corrected with a toric lens.
