rgp lenses and squinting

Postby greenpen » Sat 19 Jun 2010 4:04 pm

i have been struggling to wear my rgp lenses for a month and a half now. I have had my lenses changed a few times too. I am wearing my lenses now and I am squinting a lot, opening my eyes wider hurts, and I'm squinting not for vision but for comfort and to look at the TV I have to raise my head high to look at it looking through the bottom of my eyes. Is this normal or are the lenses a bad fit?
Thanks,

Welcome to the forum. It does sound like your lenses are not helping too much; I'd always go back to the lens clinic to explain my experience.

Every good wish.
