well if u are asking if they have those perscriptions yes. but there are other factors like the diameter of your eye etc. see your eye doctor.

Yes, you may wear contact lenses. You might have to wear over the counter glasses for reading. You may also probably get color-enhanced ones. You need to see an Eye Specialist because you have to be fitted for your eyes. The colored oned will be more expensive and I don't believe eye insurance cover those.

yes u can defnitely wear contact lens for that power. but if you have cylindricals power then you hav to opt only for disposible contact lens. as im also using disposable contact lens {Baush and Lomb's Optima toric 66}. and the funniest part is my power is -6.5 in each of my eye swhich is more than twice than what you have now and my age is 18yrs. and its better you consult a good doctor in your location for further details. but im sure that you can wear contact lens. dont worry about it
Good Luck
Bye

Sure! I'm a -1.0 in my left and a -1.25 in my right and my brother is a -4.25 in both eyes, and we both wear contacts. You still have to get an eye exam to get fitted for contacts, but with your perscription it's definitely possible.

These are excellent numbers for contact lens wear. I would go for soft lenses.

Certainly you can. And you can buy contact lenses easily, needn't to buy MTO(made to order) or high powers. Your eye powers are very common.
Contact lenses will give you a new look. And you will enjoy their convenience when you are in the movement. If you used to them, you will not feel they are in your eyes.
