Contact lens HAVE cup size.. are you aware what is your cup size?

For all contact lens wearers in Malaysia, this might come as a shock to you..

This was because as my friend from Japan who recently visited me in Malaysia was very surprised to see contact lens being sold in kiosks. She explained that in Japan, one must visit an optometrist in order to determine your cup size.

"Cup size??", I asked.. Turned out beside the power, every individual have different eye shape.

To know the cup size of the contact lens, just refer to the number above the power. That's the cup size which is 8.7 in the picture below.

So once again, another example where consumers in Malaysia are short-changed by the local industry... Imagine the comfort of wearing contact lens which are fitted for your eyes but for years we have been given a one-size-fits-all contact lens depending on what stock we have in Malaysia.

Considering the prices of contact lens by famous brands are not cheap, these kind of practices should not be accepted as norm in Malaysia as we are no longer third world country but a developing country.
