Will A Coloured Lense Treat Light Problems In Astigmatic Eye With Corneal Scar?

I have astigmatism in my left eye and wear Accuvue Oasis lenes for Astigmatism. They dodn't help much, But I have a more important problem in that eye which is a corneal scar, which gives me problems with light. Would a colored lense be beneficial in this situation? Thanks, Ron

Ophthalmologist,  's  Response
Well I read your history. First of all if scar is in visual axis, no contact lens will be beneficial... Still I advice you to contact your ophthalmologist for examination & proper contact lens prescription.

For further query, feel free to contact me.
