I currently wear Rudy Project Rydons.
I have the clip on Rx insert but it's not comfy. I'm also tired of putting on contacts.
My prescription requires a flatter lens. The Rydons had to be "flattened" a bit when I first got them cuz the curvature resulted in some distortion. Not perfect but it does the job.

Wondering what has worked for others with high astigmatism.

For those that understand it, here's my Rx
Sphere Cyl Axis
OD -4.50 -2.50 003
ID -4.25 -3.50 002
Why not a pair of Rudys with a prescription lens. I have a pair with photochromatic lenses that I can use day or evening, rain or shine. I have some astigmatism and need a fair amount of correction. They work great.
