Firstly, thanks to all. I've learnt a lot about glasses from this
group already. I've never had glasses before and I suppose I likely
don't really need them yet, but I'm tired of my night vision depth of
field being miserable while driving. I definitely need the reading
glasses portion of the prescription.
I have a few questions before I go ahead and order up my first pair of
glasses.
Never having had glasses before doesn't help the process of buying on
line. I know this prescription is not a very strong one, but I don't
know enough to tell where the decimal points have been left out of the
numbers below. I'd appreciate a hand with that.
OD - RE SPH. -025 CYL. -025 AXIS 80
OS - LE SPH. -025 CYL. -025 AXIS 85
ADD
OD +225
OS +225
The PD numbers were written on their card as being:
35/64
32/67
I measured my PD and my right eye is 35mm from the middle of my nose
bridge and my left eye is 32mm from centre.
I read those numbers as:
OD - 35
OS - 32
Distance - 67
Near - 64
Is that about how others read them too?
I need a bifocal lens and look forward to having progressive lenses.
Am I better off having two pair of glasses, one as sunglasses and the
other clear or is it conventional wisdom that the photochromic is the
way to go?
Cheers! Ian
