Last year I got a couple pair of glasses from America's Best and started wearing them instead of contacts, but they were damaged so I wanted something new. With a new year, and a new insurance carrier, my wife and I realized that we have one covered eye exam per year at no charge. Grand plans, we got our eyes checked, got our prescriptions and placed our first order from Zenni.
We just got our glasses last week, I got two pair and she got one. When I try on my glasses, everything seems a bit distorted. When I look at something like a doorway I can tell that each side of the door frame bow outward slightly. This is not the case with my old glasses. Now, my prescription did change, but not by a lot. The new lenses from Zenni are much thicker on the outside than my old lenses (which were upcharged for the thinner lenses I think). I'm just curious, do you folks think distortion like this could be caused from having the wrong PD, or is the prescription itself at fault? The new glasses do provide better vision, but the distortion is annoying. When I try on my wife's pair, there is no distortion (but they are not the correct strength, so while they improve my vision a little bit they do not correct it). Just wondering if I should try to order another pair with an adjusted PD, or maybe the thinner lens upgrade, or should I get my eyes re-checked? Any suggestions? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Check us out at the oft-updated http://www.glassyeyes.com!
