Yes, these are brand new...

Part of the problem could be that I'm just a new contact wearer, and because I'm on a computer a lot I can't wear them as much as I should.

But they just don't feel that comfortable and my night vision isn't nearly as good as with real glasses.

spence, i sold optholmic deivces (some of which were contact lenses) for 7 years.

astigmatic patients have had lenses available to them since 1994.the first being focus toric, which was a great lens until 2004 when new technology came out for toric lenses. These new lenses won't dry for comuter users, and frequent travelers on aiplanes, will be fine for night vision and will make your every day things to do much more enjoyable without adjusting glasses on your face. Ask your eye care professional or I can direct you in the right way since i worked with them all and know the best from the worst dr's out there. Trust me, there are some you need to stay away from.
