Choosing Your Farsighted Colored Contact Lens Prescription Online

👓➡️👁️ Choosing Your Farsighted Colored Contact Lens Prescription Online 🌈✨

Ready to enhance your eyes with beautiful colored contacts, but have a farsighted (hyperopia) prescription? No worries! This guide makes it simple to select the perfect lenses online. 😊

1️⃣ Understanding Your Prescription and Astigmatism 📋🔍

Your farsighted glasses prescription typically includes positive (+) numbers under Sphere (SPH). Here’s an example:

Eye 👁️Sphere (SPH)Cylinder (CYL)Axis (°)
Right (OD)+2.50-0.5090°
Left (OS)+3.00
  • ✅ Positive (+) Sphere numbers indicate farsightedness (hyperopia).
  • ✅ Cylinder (CYL): Indicates astigmatism, usually negative (-).

If your astigmatism (CYL) is mild (-0.75 or less), you can comfortably choose regular spherical colored lenses.

⚠️ Important Note: Currently, we do not offer colored contact lenses that correct both farsightedness (+SPH) and astigmatism (CYL). If your astigmatism is moderate or strong (above -0.75), please consult your eye care professional before ordering.

2️⃣ Selecting the Correct Sphere Power 🎯

For farsightedness, your contact lens prescription generally matches your glasses prescription closely:

  • ✅ +0.25 to +4.00: Choose the same sphere power as your glasses.
  • ✅ Above +4.00: Slight adjustment needed, refer to the chart below:
Glasses SPHRecommended Contacts SPHExample
+4.25 to +5.00Add +0.25+4.50 glasses → +4.75 contacts
+5.25 to +6.00Add +0.50+5.75 glasses → +6.25 contacts
+6.25 to +7.00Add +0.75+6.50 glasses → +7.25 contacts
Above +7.00Consult your eye care professional
📌 Tip: If your exact prescription isn’t available, choose the nearest slightly lower power for comfortable vision.

3️⃣ Base Curve (BC) and Diameter (DIA) 📏

  • ✅ Standard Base Curve (BC): 8.6mm
  • ✅ Standard Diameter (DIA): 14.0–14.5mm
✨ Unless you’ve previously worn lenses with different measurements comfortably, we recommend sticking to these standard parameters.

4️⃣ Pupillary Distance (PD) 👀

Good news! Pupillary Distance (PD) is only needed for eyeglasses, not for contact lenses. 🎉

📝 Quick Checklist:

  • ✅ Select same SPH as glasses for +0.25 to +4.00.
  • ✅ Slightly adjust SPH for prescriptions above +4.00.
  • ✅ No colored lenses available for combined farsightedness and astigmatism correction.
  • ✅ Standard BC (8.6mm) and DIA (14.0–14.5mm) suit most people.

👩‍⚕️ Final Advice

Always confirm your prescription and lens choices with an eye care professional, especially if you have moderate-to-high prescriptions or astigmatism.

✨ Happy Lens Shopping!
