Toric lenses?

Hello,I really want to order color contacs, but my doctor said it's not possible to have color contacts because I have mild astigmatism (-0,5 left eye)When I try normal non dioptric lenses I can't see far away.But I saw that u offer lenses for astigmatism-toric lenses. What would you recommend me. Regards!

I'm pretty sure that you can wear color contact lenses even if you have astigmatism. I'm no expert but when I searched I found this site which seems to have the answers you're looking for - It says that there are color contacts made for people with astigmatism:

I hope this answers your question! (Please let me know if you still need help - I was kind of confused by what exactly you were asking)

 

I make do with non-Toric lenses even though I have a mild astigmatism also.  MMy myopia is a lot more severe.  Ask the doc if you can wear, for example, non-Toric Acuvues.  It works for me.
