Astigmatism contacts should work right away like regular contacts. If this still hasn't improved talk to your optometrist again and tell him exactly how/when your eyesight feels blurry. Add in the fact that you have tried his previous tip with adding eye drops.
Did you have regular contacts before this? Did they work better? Perhaps talk to your optometrist about switching back if you feel that the contacts do not work for you. I have a slight astigmatism (egg shaped eyeballs) in both my eyes but I use regular contacts which works fine for me.
Hope things get better, let me know if things get resolved! Thanks for your help! I went to the doctors last Friday and it turns out that they put the left contact in the right side of the case and the right in the left. However, when I switched them back I still couldn't see so they are going to reorder a new pair.
