I recently decided to just try to use online tools to estimate magnification for contact lenses. I ended up going with something like 6.0. Which turned out to be too much. But I am still able to use them in VR better than my existing glasses with have a defect now. I am thinking of just buying another box at like 5.85 which is what I think my old prescription was. I am in Mexico and lentesenmexico.com.mx does not require a prescription. The local optometrist would probably end up costing me an extra $40 or $50. I definitely understand the need to screen for real health problems in the eyes, but in the US they have taken it to an extreme that just wastes a lot of people's money and feels like some kind of Mafia activity.
