I'd suggest having the lens Rx confirmed at WalMart when you go to
have them adjusted. That way you'll *know* if the RX is right (as
you're not used to multifocals yet, and you don't want to try and
adapt to an incorrect Rx).

As for getting used to varifocals, wear them as much as possible to
allow your brain to adapt to turning your head instead of turning your
eyes to see from side to side. It's usually just a matter of time to
adapt to them, although you may have some mild queasiness <sp?> when
looking sideways or turning your head in the interim. You'll probably
find that the hardest part about varifocals (and bifocals for that
matter) is going down stairs, as you'll invariably look through the
reading portion of the lens while doing this and experience what is
called the "swimmimg effect" (looks like your underwater).

All in all, I think (if the Rx is correct) you'll end up loving your
new varifocals once you've had time to adapt to them.
