  It sounds like a protein deposit. It is time to get a new pair.

• Do contact lenses have the same prescription just like ordinary eye glasses?

  In most cases, they are not the same.The power of contact lenses are usually less than that of eyeglasses because the contact lenses are placed directly on the eyeball.

  You may experience some blurring and dryness at first because your eyes are trying to adjust.It may take several days or 2 weeks at most.

  The contacts are not separated by age ,and there is no contacts designed specially for children.If you don't need them,you'd better not get them cuz they can easiy cause eye problems if cared unproperly.

  Yes,it is quite normal to have such feeling.If it is first time for you to wear contacts, you may undergo some blurring and dryness because your eyes are trying to adjust to wearing contacts and it will take several days to 2 weeks at most for some people to get used to it. If your eyes are too dry, you will find things blurry. In this case, you can just buy some eye drops that are safe for use while wearing contact lenses, which will help to add some extra moisture to your eyes.After that ,you should be fine.

• Does this mean I need reading glasses?

  If you can see clearly without wearing any glasses, you don't need reading glasses, instead, you only need to take your glasses off when you read books. If not, you need reading glasses or bifocals both for reading and seeing far.
