Astigmatism to Regular Conversion Chart for Contact Lenses

This Astigmatism to Regular Conversion Chart for Contact Lenses is for finding the power (spherical value) of a regular contact lens that can provide adequate vision for users with mild astigmatism (+/-0.25 to +/-1.00) and spherical values between -6.00 and +6.00. Recall that usage of regular contact lenses for astigmatic people should be a temporary arrangement, like a party or a football match. Refer to this post about whether people with astigmatism can wear regular contacts. For frequent contacts users and those with significant astigmatism, it is recommended to use toric (donut shaped) contact lenses.

An astigmatism to regular conversion calculator for the same purpose is also available, along with the calculation method. This chart is based on the same methodology.

Always remember to double check with your optometrist and eyecare professional before following stuff on the internet.
