Is it possible to wear eyeglasses over contact lenses? My right eye is
a -11.00D, and Dres Hertzog and Ryan, my opthalamologist and
optometrist --respectively-- gave me a balance lens, b/c my frames'd
look horrible w/ a -3.00lens for the left, and a -11.00D lens for the
right. So, could they give me a -8.00D contact lens for my right eye --
and plano contacts for my left--, and me wear my glasses over them?

Thanks!!!!

I've worn glasses over contact lenses for years. It's not at all
uncommon, and -- at least IME -- not particularly challenging for the
eye docs.
