Gradually reduced side (peripheral) vision. A curtain-like shadow over your visual field(which makes it seem as if a curtain has been pulled across your field of vision, with a dark shadowing effect.)

View allI'm experiencing some pain in my left eyebrow. I had nasal congestion recently, and yesterday I took a painkiller which helped, but I'm worried because the pain has returned. I recently had a health checkup, and everything seemed fine. I also have a vision of 6.5. Could the vision issue be related to this pain, or is it something else I should be concerned about? What do you think could be causing it?

My doctor gave me a prescription for my glasses with these details: Right Eye is 2.25 spherical, 1.50 cylindrical with an axis of 170, and the Left Eye is 2.75 spherical and 1.25 cylindrical with an axis of 10. But the specs I got made by the company have the Right Eye at 2.25 spherical, 1.50 cylindrical with an axis of 160, and the Left Eye at 2.75 spherical and 1.25 cylindrical with an axis of 180. I'm wondering, will this change in axis affect my vision in any way? Should I continue using these specs or should I get them corrected to match my prescription?

I'm wondering if it's possible to wear a combination of contacts and glasses, like using contact lenses for my SPH power and glasses for my CYL power. My CYL power is pretty high, and I can't seem to find contact lenses that can accommodate it. Could you give me some advice on this?
