Dailies Contact Lenses

What happens if you put only one contact lens and pass a day with it?

I was in a hurry one day and I had to run, and I had my left contact in my eye but was having problems putting my right one on. So I passed the day with only one lens on. During that day, I felt my eye was starting to force too much to see from far. I have -0.75 on my right eye, and -1.25 on the other. I suffer from Astigmatism. Since that day, I start to realize that I don't see as clearly with my right eye (when the contact is on it). Did my vision get better or worse?

1. Go a full day without the lenses and then put them both in. Don't do it again it is not good for your eyes and it's amazing you didn't get a real bad headache.
2. omg. that happned to me too before. and i also hav astigmatism. anyways, your vision probably got worse. but either way, with astigmatism, your vision only gets worse with age. it can nver get better, unfortunately.
3. As per the situation you mentioned above, it is only one day. It did or will not effect your vision much. Don't worry. Don't do that again. Your right eye gets better, only a little. But I can imagine, that day, your left eye with contact did feel tired and your right eye had unclear vision. This unbalance is quite uncomfortable.
