Regarding axis numbers, curvature numbers and kerotometers!


Question: Regarding axis numbers, curvature numbers and kerotometers
Answers:
Not having see you myself, I can only speculate!. Most keratometers only read the central 3 mm of your cornea!. The curvature of the lens that has worked for years, may no longer be correct if portions of the cornea have changed outside of those 3 mm!. In general, an 8!.5 lens (such as soflens 66 toric) might be too tight for the measurements you've given (and is very likely given the symptoms you present)!. Your best bet is to ask to have a corneal topography reading done!. This will measure a larger zone of your cornea and may help determine if the current lens is fitting improperly!. I use it all the time in my practice to fit lenses!. As for the axis change, that is not very much, especially if you are having changes exerted by ill-fitting contact lenses!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

regarding the axis changes - those generally are very stable, wouldn't expect to change even over several years!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

If all these specialists keep telling you there is no medical explanation for the blurred vision, then maybe you need to see a different type of specialist!. Some other causes of blurred vision are high blood pressure, diabetes, tumors on/near the eye and/or brain stem!. Someone should have told you that last month or two doctors ago!.

We just recently suggested to a patient in our office to get her blood pressure and sugars checked!. She was in serious need of meds!!!!Www@Answer-Health@Com

big problem is see, you do not give correct info on Rx!. contact lenses only come in axis in multiples of 5!. they are not like glasses!. and you did not give give the complete Rx!. You did not give the cylinder!. Only the sphere!. So I need more info before I can give you the answerWww@Answer-Health@Com
