Contacts are inconsistently blurry
So I've been wearing contacts for a couple of years now, and at first they were great. Almost no issues. After about a year of wearing them, I started to notice that my vision was getting worse in them while my vision in glasses remained crisp and perfect. I went back to my eye doctor, and after multiple prescription changes and brand changes, it remained an issue, so I sought 2 different opinions from other optometrists. No Luck.
I went back to my original eye doctor, and he yet again changed the brand and prescription. I thought it did the trick as it seemed to be better, but here I am months later, and I'm starting to notice it again.
The blurriness is VERY inconsistent and I think that's key point here. Some days it's just slight but annoying, and other days, I straight up have worse vision than my uncorrected eyesight. I also get annoyed with wearing them after a couple of hours because I can feel the contacts, and it gives me headaches.
The contacts my doctor has me in now are the Acuvue Vita for astigmatism.
I don't know if maybe the lenses are having a hard time aligning themselves? The days that they are blurry, I give them at least 30-45 mins to adjust, and they will still be blurry.
I think I clean them well. I have tried many solutions and am currently using Clear Care. Not the hydra glide, just the original stuff.
I really don't know what to do. I've kinda just given up and have been wearing my glasses. I can't go back to my optometrist until next year, when I get my eye insurance back.
Has anyone experienced something like this?
