I have astigmatism on both eyes, with left eye a cylinder of 1.0 i am told there are no brands with 1.0 which makes it blurry. what can i do?

0.75 OK: If you are referring to contact lenses, then one with a cylinder of 0.75 would be fine. The number does not have to be exact, and the contact lens itself will mask the final 0.25.

Does wearing toric lensesthat is different in (cylinder) size from my actual cyl eye size can increase my myopia abd astigmatism in the future ?
My question was misunderstood. Does eye rubbing cause -0.5 cylinder power change in eye permanently ? I have this refractive error in right eye since few months. Local opthalmologist said astigmatism could be caused by rubbing. will it go back to 0?
So my right eye can see 0.6 easily and some of the 0.8 so in between0.6 and 0.8 so i would say 0.75 i did it at night. I have astigmatism. My left eye can only see 0.4. I have this condition, when one of my eye is better than the other.Is it serious?
Well to be honest i do have some difficulties with the vision on my left eye. A doctor once from an optic store told me that i have astigmatism.
Left eye is a bit blurry. Had a recent exam and have an astigmatism. Is it normal or should I be seeing clear? Doctor says it's my right prescription.
