Give me a museum and I'll fill it. (Picasso) Give me a forum ...
Background: I am nearsighted and have distant vision of 20/50'ish. My near vision is pretty much perfect...so no readers required. I have grown tired of cleaning glasses all the time and am giving contacts a try.
Although a pain to put in and take out, I do like how my far vision looks. However, this has my near vision all sorts of messed up. I was supposed to have the second follow up after a week's trial today but has been postponed until at least next week because of weather.
I have read that one of the solutions is a single monovision lens. Basically I would use a single contact in the dominant eye for far vision and not have a lens for the near vision and my brain would make the corrections and I wouldn't have the issues with my near vision being blurry with both lenses.
The question I have is...can I wear a single lens NOW in my dominant eye until I can follow up w/ the ophthalmologist or is this not advisable? I don't think it would cause unwanted issues if I did this for a week but I don't really know.
