Picked up new glasses today...
Re: Picked up new glasses today...
I gave up on mine. They were impossible to use since for most of my work, I need to look down at my desk and then up at my laptop screen a million times a day. If you don't adjust to them, return them. You may get a full refund or something toward regular readers.

That's what I'm thinking. The company who made my progressives gives you 30 days to adjust. If you can tell that isn't going to happen, they will remake the lenses anyway you want at no extra charge.LWolfT wrote: ↑Wed Oct 11, 2017 10:47 am It can take me the better part of a week to get used to a new prescription ... and I've worn glasses for decades. It may be, too, that you need more adjustment ... since it's the first time you've worn glasses, it may take a bit to find the right alignment for you.
I take it you're farsighted? DH who also is farsighted couldn't hack the progressives ... he had to switch to traditional bifocals. If things don't improve, you may need to consider that.
Best advice is to be patient ... keep going back if you feel it needs adjustment. I know it's a pain, but it's a BIG change for you.
My eye doctor wears the progressives and said it took him a week to adjust. I'm giving it until next Tuesday, I think, and then reaccess.

My husband is far-sighted and hated progressives. He had a pair of bifocals made for reading and another for watching TV and is much happier.

Sandy, I think it took me a couple of weeks to adjust to my no line bifocals. BE VERY CAREFUL GOING UP AND DOWN STAIRS, STEPPING UP AND DOWN FROM CURBS, ETC.!!!
