What's the chance of a toric lense sliding off cornea?!


Question: Sometimes I think that will happen to mine cause they ride so much?


Answers: Sometimes I think that will happen to mine cause they ride so much?

Do you wear soft torics or gas permeable (hard) torics?

Soft toric contact lenses that aren't fit correctly may rotate on your eye and cause you to have blurry vision and some discomfort but they usually don't slide off your cornea unless you rub them.

Gas permeable toric lenses if not fit correctly will rotate and give you blurry vision and may decenter off your cornea onto your conjunctiva (whites of your eye).

Either way, if you have "normal" corneas but your contacts are moving around a lot, go see your doctor to get them refit.

I dunno, but mine do it all the time.....
Bad when driving.......

i had a toric lens in my left eye and there was never a chance of it sliding anywhere, in fact it was much more difficult to remove than the other one. maybe you should go back to your optician and get your eyes sized again..
