Short Sight Eye Correction

woos,

As far as I know there is no specific reference to what the amount of correction is for contact lenses. All it says on the CAA website is that if you are short sighted the "refractive error must not exceed -6.00 dioptres of short sight"

I would not have thought there is much difference in correction between glasses and contact lenses though; so if your glasses prescription is within these limits, then chances are this will be the case for your contact lenses.

Hope that helps anyway!

Adam.
