Basically, I've been experiencing a couple of problems with the glasses I've bought and I was wondering which possibility is the most likely candidate.
I got a new prescription from walmart from their $50 eye exam, and had them write down my PD Measurement. I then took it to Goggles4U.com and bought a pair of glasses in their mid index range and a pair of blue sunglasses in their low index range. My pupil distance measured out to be 62.5 (31 in one eye and 31.5 in the other) and they didn't have a select for 62.5 so I chose 63. The prescription from what I heard was only slightly different from the one I had had and my previous glasses I had had for 2 years now. So I finally get the glasses and put them on, noticing how much sharper things were as is always the case with new glasses. I also had the slight nausea feeling that I've learned to associate with new glasses which usually went away within a day. Well, the nausea feeling never really left. It's been extreme slight, mostly when I move my head and look out of the corner of my glasses but its still been there. I ended up ordering another pair of glasses in their low index range and put a pupil distance of 62 on them. I had noticed that my first pair of glasses had it hard for me to focus on things right away or something like a very slight split of vision. It's kind of hard to describe really. The 62 PD glasses dont really have that as much but the nausea and slight off balance feeling is still present when I wear the glasses. I figure it could be a couple things. 1. The PD really does matter down to half a millimeter, but I kind of find that slightly hard to beleive. If it does, I could always get them from 39dollarglasses I guess since they have .5 PD measurements. 2. the prescription glasses they gave me were wrong which I highly doubt since all three pairs seem to be the exact same one and there have been multiple good things said about them. 3. I'm not adjusting the glasses right. I dont really know how much this plays into things, but I've found that minor adjustments to the glasses can make things slightly better or worse but it never really fixes the problem. 4. The prescription the doctor gave me is wrong. I'm guessing this is the most likely one. I was very careful to enter in the correct prescription. The prescription feels right as far as vision goes. Perhaps the axis is wrong? I dont understand too terribly much about glasses prescriptions to know for sure.
