A member asked:
Im farsighted & astigmatism. my contacts are very blurry at night & during the day. the lenses are toric and don't seem dry. i see better w/out them.

Use eyeglasses: Contacts are a convenience which allow for good sight without the need for eyeglasses. If you see better without them, they are not a requirement. If your ophthalmolgist has been advised about your difficulty, perhaps a better fit can be found. Otherwise consider regular eyeglass use.
