Hey everyone,
First post here on this forum, although I've been lurking for a little while. I just picked up new glasses yesterday and am having a whale of a time adjusting to them. The people at the store said that my new glasses are a weaker prescription, but have much more astigmatism adjustment than my old pair. I can definitely tell that the new prescription allows me to see smaller print further away, but everything seems a little bit distorted. It seems as if the stationary objects are moving around me.
My old RX:
-175 - 25 155
-175 --- ----
New RX:
-100 -75 165
-150 -75 180
I'm not an eye specialist by any means, but this seems like a pretty big change in prescription. I am getting somewhat lightheaded when I wear them for an extended period of time, especially when looking at things up close. Are any of these symptoms normal and should I just gut it out for a week and see what happens? Thanks much for your help!
