Question: What is the highest magnifying power of contacts!?
How bad of vision can they correct!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Contacts don't magnify!. They correct refractive error!.

Frequent replacement (disposable) soft lenses are available from +8!.00 to -15!.00!.

Standard non disposable soft lenses are available from +20!.00 to -20!.00!. Rigid lenses and custom soft lenses are available in any power!.

20/xx notation does not specify contact lens power!. It specifies how well a particular eye sees either with or without glasses or contacts!.

Www@Answer-Health@Com

Up to a + or - 20!.00 in soft lenses, and up to 30!.00 in RGP lenses ( rigid)

EDIT****

You want to know in the 20/20 form!?!.!.!.can't be done!. The 20/20 measurement is the visual acuity you have, it is really nothing to do with the power of the lenses, or the prescription you need!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I can't put it into 20/100 form, sorry! But my doctor said they sometimes go up to -12!.00!. My mom is a -9!.75 which is really bad already (everything is blurry for her, even close up) so you can imagine how far they go!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

contact lenses are not magnifying glasses and for vision, the contacts lens are for vision correction - only, there should not be any confusion about itWww@Answer-Health@Com

Contact lenses can correct most any vision!. They do not magnify, however!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
