Hhmm have you tried them in the different eyes? Maybe you have just got them mixed up?! Hopefully it is that as swapping lenses is much better than a sight problem.
Take care. Sweet X x X

Would have to know the make of lenses to be definitive here but generally the unbroken line is the right eye so it sounds like you do have them the right way round!

I got my optometrist to give me lenses that were different colours (or rather, different shades of blue). Dark was left. light was right.
All the best

I did the same. Blue for left and a brown/grey colour for the right. So much easier.. I never even worried about which side of my case I was putting them in.

Thanks all.
I think left eye has just got worse but these are temp lenses until graft appointment in june.
She basically signed me off after giving me these. Will i still be able to go back to her. Cos baby is due soon and i cant see well.

Here is the way it works.
You are the customer. They are the shopkeepers. You keep going back as much as you need to until YOU are satisfied you have got it right.
Even if you are seen in a hospital clinic, this is a service for which you have paid, and go on paying. Even if you do not pay income tax, you pay plenty of VAT on practically everything you buy (except newspapers),
