Answers:
Yes you can still wear contacts!. They can make the strength of each contact different!. My eyes are of the same weakness in each eye!. For my husband, one eye is weaker than the other!. When you get the contact case, it will have a "L" for left eye and an "R" for right eye!. You just have to make sure you put the correct contact in the correct spot (Left or Right)!. With glasses, yes your eyes look different behind the lenses!. With contacts, it's not like that because the contact sits on top of your pupil!. It doesn't make your eyes huge or anything!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Yes you can, your eye doctor will order for you the right strength of contacts for each eye!. Usually they put a sticker that says R on it on the box you will need to use for your right eye so that you dont get them confused!.
Contacts dont make your eyes look bigger or funnier like glasses do!. I have bad eyesight and I love my contacts!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

yes, the doctor, will give you a two contacts each will have a different perscription, so make sure when you talk them out, you put them in the correct spot!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Yes you can!. If one eye really is perfect, then your doctor might only give you one contact, but I'm not positive!. But many people's contacts are different strengths!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
