hello all,
I am planning to get reduced-prescriptions with the astigmatism removed. Once I can see relatively clearly without my astigmatism correction, I will start to reduce the spherical power. I was curious what you all thought about that?
Currently, the glasses prescription I use is:
Right eye: -9.00 cyl -1.25
Left eye: -5.00 cyl -2.25
According to a recent eye exam however, my astigmatism is actually -3.00 in my left eye and -1.75 in my right eye.
So I would begin by getting a prescription of just -9 and -5, and work on seeing the world clearly without my astigmatism correction. After weeks-months, as the double vision decreases, I would decrease my dipoter my 0.25-0.50 and go from there.
what do you guys think?
Thanks [/align]

Wow it's nice to see someone who's worse off than me.
I've been using glasses without astigmatism correction for quite a while and I don't think that alone will correct it, I still notice double vision in my eye with the larger astigmatism. ( -1.5 )
