This is the "strength" of your lenses that will do the actual correction to your vision problem. There are positiv (+) and negativ (-) values for nearsight and farsight. Base Curve This is the shape of the lens, as it must match the curve of your eye and stick to it. Some products only have one Base Curve to choose from. The base curve is important for your contactlens, as if it is different to your existing prescription, the lens may feel uncomfortable in your eye. Diameter This is the diameter of the lens.
