My mum still takes a few days to gt used to them when she gts a new paid of glasses.
She's now 75 and has been wearing specs since before the war.
Hope yours settle down over the next couple of days for you.

I have had my glasses for four months now and the optom warned me that I would get these weird effects because of the extreme prescription, mostly settled down after a while. I still have a bit of an impaired depth perception and when washing up, the frying pan held at 45° in front of me definitely does not appear to be circular.

Hi<

I wear glasses all the time.
I have been told that they can not make my glasses any stronger, so i am guessing they are a strong prescription!
It took me about a month to get full use out of them because they made me feel quiet ill. I had to increase my wear time and i could n't go out in them to start off with.

I had that when I was first prescribd specs after my graft. Not only did straight lines become curved and circles become eliptical, but I felt quite sea sick while wearing them.

I'm used to them now, and straight lines and circles have returned to their proper shape!

Thanks for the feedback. It's very helpful and reassuring to hear that these 'symptoms' are common. For a minute I thought Boots had given me someone else's glasses...

Like both Andrew and Anne, I also get a strange, headache, queasy feeling whilst wearing the specs. A bit like sea-sickness. Only through staying absolutely still, does the vision and distortion settle.

I'll slowly build up the wearing time over the next week or so and see how it goes.
