Optometry: What does "BC" mean? What does this prescription say?!


Question: On 1800contacts.com there is a space for selecting BC. What is this? The choices are around 8 and 9, depending on the brand.

My optometrist gave me the following prescription, but I am not sure what it says after the 450 and what kind of contacts to order at 1800contacts.com. Please define what the prescription says and what type of contacts I have to get (these are my first contacts)
