Hello
Welcome to health care magic.

I reviewed your history.
It seems from the history that you are having refractive error.
The requirement of cylindrical lens indicates astigmatism and this can be corrected by use of cylindrical lenses.
Hence you need to use combination of spherical and cylindrical lens for correction of refractive error.

Thank you
