Could be that the correction is not right,could be that your dominating eye has a lower VA now,due to astig.Could be over prescription.

hmm she talking through her ass man
contact lens nearer eyes = sharper vision.. unless it's so sharp until become blur, like magnifying glass.. but can't be.
got a feeling that brand not suitable for you. just change brand

your sight is it blur when you just put on ur contact?
after a while, it will be okay.
After the blur has gone, I find it clearer than my specs.

I also got this problem with Acuvue Oasys.
I called the optican, she said it is normal. (especially my degree is high)

Anyone also got this problem?

hmmm sounds like a technique problem. What i do is use two fingers and place them at the edges of the lens, gripping it SLIGHTLY, then blink your eye.. sure to come out

I suspect u hv astig & ur glasses r corrected for astig. When u got ur lenses, they are not corrected for astig, so that may explain the blurness.

123 is a marking on the lens that shows whether the lens is the correct side or not. So far I only know Acuvue has it.
