Answers:
Where are you getting those numbers from !?

They don't make any real sense as it is written!.!.!.

Explain where you see those numbers then maybe someone can help explain!.!.!.

EDIT *****

Ahhh ok, a bit more explanation goes a long ways!.!.!.lol

You wear toric lenses for astigmatism, and the lenses are just rotating by that much!. I presume they are going to reorder in a different axis to compensate for that !.

When a toric lens rotates by 20 degrees off axis, it will normally make your vision keep blurring!.

Toric lenses are weighted to make them stay in the same position , but for different reasons, sometimes they turn anyway when you blink!.!.!.!.which means they aren't fitting right!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

if you have and astigmatism then thats base on an axis!. An axis is 1 to 180 degrees and your contacts or glasses are made to fit on the axis that is best for you!. If you have an atigmatism then this means your cornea is not perfectly round like a basketball but more like and football, this requires measurement of the cornea, so your cornea is measured on a horizontal and vertical and this helps determine the axis or degrees of correction you need!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

may that mean 6/20 for your right eye and 6/10 for your left eye
that mean your (visual acuity)
but when you buy contacts you must convert it to decimal
to be 6/20=between 1!.75 to 2!.00
and 6/10= 1!.00
i hope that helpWww@Answer-Health@Com
