At 36, I finally gave and got new glasses. Never wearing prescription glasses, I wasn't sure if there was some sort of adjustment period to get used to them. Reason I ask is that although everything is much clearer, it looks like everything I look at appears it is moving away from me. For example, looking at the computer monitor, the top looks further back than the bottom of the screen and the sides of the monitor go out on an angle as I move from the bottom to the top of the monitor. Any ideas on what specifically causes this? Is this an error in the person who created my lenses? Is it normal to have to adjust and eventually everything will go back to normal?

Answer:

the glasses just dont fit you right. go into an optician and have them refitted. very common prob with new glasses. its bcos the lens is actually cut at an angle depending on your eyesight, and that angle needs to be aligned with the appropriate part of your eye. usually just adjusting the frame is enough to make it sit right.

That happens often, it takes a while to get used to the glasses. Sometimes the depth perception is off, sometimes everything seems too sharp.... If however, after a couple of days it continues, you should go back to the optician and they might have to change your prescription.

Your prescription is not correct. Let your optometrist know. You should not be having problems adjusting.

Ask optomitrist .He knows your eyes better than us amatuers.

most men just wear glasses when they have to and they whip them off and don't be seen in them as they don't want to appear to be wearing glasses. Here is my advice.
