Question
Recently, got new prescription for eyes. Old glasses not correct for eyes. New glasses (progressive plastic lense) seem to be correct for eyes but I see distortion. for example if looking at a magazine page, the top looks wider than the bottom. also distorts shapes such as table tops. Is it the process? same eye care center used both times.
Answer
Hi July
Go back to the shop and explain your issue. They may be able to simply adjust the glasses to conform to your face more closely or explain that the curves or prescription (probably astigmatism) contribute to your symptoms. Believe it or not you will probably quickly adapt to it with full time use, but no need to if a simple adjustment can help. If no help from above tips, then changing the lens material or lens curves may help.
