Softer contact lenses are normally in plano form which suggests they have no corrective power and not classified as a medical device, although they still need to be CE marked and FDA approved. A handful of soft contact lenses are acknowledged as extended wear lenses. Most of the soft contact lenses come with no vision rectification. If your eye normally requires a lens that needs corrective vision then you must visit your optician so you can get prescription lenses.
