Hi Akanksha, yes, it’s possible to have a power like -2.50 SPH and -3.50 CYL and still not see clearly even with glasses. The power doesn’t directly equal 6/6 vision—other factors like astigmatism, lens fitting, or underlying eye conditions (like dry eyes or retinal issues) can affect vision.

Seeing blur or blue tint even with specs could mean:
	•	Your prescription might not be fully accurate
	•	You may have astigmatism not fully corrected
	•	Or you could be experiencing light sensitivity or eye strain

Please visit an optometrist or ophthalmologist for a full checkup and maybe a refraction recheck. Correct power doesn’t always guarantee perfect vision—it depends on how well your eyes respond to the correction.

Yes, it’s absolutely possible to have high power (like -2.50 spherical and -4.00 cylindrical) and still experience blurred vision even with glasses. That’s because vision sharpness (like 6/27) depends not just on the lens power, but also on how accurately the power is corrected, lens alignment, and other eye conditions like astigmatism, dry eyes, or retinal health. If your prescription isn’t fully accurate or if your eyes aren’t fully adjusting to your glasses, you might not reach 6/6 (perfect vision), even if the numbers seem right.

In your case, the high cylindrical power (-4.00) indicates significant astigmatism, which means the shape of your cornea is uneven, making vision more distorted. Sometimes people with high astigmatism need custom lenses or more frequent adjustments to get the clearest vision. A 6/27 vision means you're seeing less clearly than normal, but this can usually be improved with a proper refraction check. It’s a good idea to get a detailed eye test from an ophthalmologist and also check for other issues like dry eye or keratoconus if blur persists despite wearing updated glasses.

Hello Akanksha, it’s possible to have a power -2.50 SPH and -3.50 CYL and still see blur even with glasses. Factors like astigmatism- keratoconus, or underlying eye conditions like retinal problems can affect vision.

Please visit an ophthalmologist for detail history taking and eye examination. You might need scleral contact lenses for 6/6 vision.
