Got my new progressive eye glasses with a stronger RX and it is strange getting use to them.  when i look down counters look slanted down.  it is making me nauseous.  I had progressive in my last pair so i didn't think it would feel too weird  but i was wrong. 4951

@foxymama: Sometimes they get it wrong when they make your glasses.  It happened to me.  If it does not feel right in the next 2 weeks take them back and make them check to see if the RX is right.

@foxymamaDude, it could be that the Prism is simply too much.....  Or it could simply be that an adjustment of your Frame is needed, which is quite common....  And any Optician should be able to help out with that....With Progressive Lenses, dude, your nose is literally your guide....  Wherever you point your nose at, that's most likely the Channel on the Lens that you're looking thru: Top of the Lens - your Distance prescription: Then it graduates into the Intermediate: Anything at arms length, including your dash on your vehicle, computer screen, etc., and then your Reading is located at the bottom of the Lens....Yes, it may take a little time of adjusting to the new prescription strength, but it definitely should not make you nauseous....  That's what makes me think that Prism could be the culprit here, and perhaps your Optometrist / Ophthalmologist might want to back off some........Just call and get back in with your Doc, dude, they may need to simply tweak your script.....Oh, and Most importantly, do NOT drive with your new spec until you are completely comfortable...

I think it is the prism strength too.  It increased a lot from my last pair.  I have an appointment with the eye doc again on Tuesday.  So it gives me a week too see if my eyes adjust or not.   4951

I had the same issue with everything slanted to the left. Saw a different Dr and my prescription was changed. Originally went to Mann Eye 2. Won't do that again. 4951

@Hattiestore1:
What did the new doctor change? I see the same doctor next week but I will get a second opinion if she doesn't fix it right. 4951

Saw the eye doc again today.  My eyes showed a different script today.  So we will see.  The first time my eyes were dialated so maybe that made a difference or maybe wearing the wrong RX for a week changed it.  I don't know but I hope this fixes my eye issues.Wearing my old glasses for now till the new ones come in.  Flying on a plane Thursday.  Hope I am not miserable  4951
