Is this a sign to stop going to this eye doctor?

Need more information

Sorry, like what?

The gist is that the Vision clinic did not get my prescription right twice in a row. I had to go back to my old ones because the new ones were making me dizzy and sick.

Why do you think it wasn’t what you needed?

There are two parts for glasses or contacts. The exam which determines what your prescription should be and the actual manufacturing of the glasses which puts the prescription into use. If you think the eye doctor is not getting the prescription correct, then try a different eye doctor. But if you think the glasses or contacts are being made incorrectly, you are sort of out of luck since all the eye doctors in a given area use the same lab to make the lenses.

What you generally can do is to take your glasses back to where you got them and tell them (usually after a 2 week period) they aren’t right and that you believe the lenses are off or the eye exam was wrong. They will likely check the exam by doing another and if it comes up the same, they will reorder lenses. Most places give you replacement for free if it isn’t right.

@seawulf575 says. Go back there and tell them the problem. They should re-examine and correct them.

Yeah, I am going back.

It is wrong because things are still blurry (worse than my old ones). My eyes hurt from trying to focus on things because before, someone standing 10 feet away from me had a clear face, now it is fuzzy. The mix of clear and fuzzy/blurry is really hurting me.

No issue with how they are made.

Did not know if I should ditch them or give benefit of the doubt.

Don’t ditch them, first let them make it right. They have to make it right, @MakeItSo1701.

@MakeItSo1701 “No issue with how they are made.”

You can’t know that. I could be that your eye doc gave them the correct prescription, but the lenses were incorrectly ground to the wrong shape. You wouldn’t be able to tell if they were made incorrectly, just that things are blurry.

^ I misunderstood then, thank you.

I meant ditch them after they fix it

They sound like it is an Eye Glass STORE run by Opticians (technicians who fit eyeglasses, contact lenses, and other vision-correcting devices.) not an Ophthalmologists which are eye doctors who perform medical and surgical treatments for eye conditions.

Yeah, the eye doctor? an Optometrist?

Well IDK what to say, sounds sloppy if you didn’t get the right script !

From what you describe (dizzy and sick) I would suspect the pupillary distance is off as its the likliest thing to mess up. When glasses are made they take the lens, a pre made circle, and cut it to the shape of your frame with the centre of the lens for each eye on the pupil. You can tolereate it being a little off but if its more than a little off you will definietly notice it. Go back and talk to them about it.

They never measured my P.D

I am going to be so mad if that is the problem, because I asked if they needed to do it and they said they do that after you get your glasses???? I was like huh???????

So I am NOT crazy!!!!

My appointment is 3pm Monday

I wore glasses from 4th grade on. The astigmatism deteriorated so rapidly I had to get a new prescripton at least once a year.
I remember being discomboomerated with the sharpness and hyper clarity I saw every time. It made me dizzy until I got used to it after a day or so.
But then I got contacts my Sr. Year in HS, and never needed a different prescription again.

@MakeItSo1701 they didn’t put your chin in a chin rest and pull a thing around that you looked into and flash different lens distortions and ask “which is clearer, A or B?” and flipped between the two until you could tell them which it was?

No they did that 1 or 2 thing, but that PD is a separate thing I thought?

They said only my left eye changed.

I think the PD is when they’re looking at the frames and make a mark where the center should be.

Inany case, they should either fix the problem or refund your money for the glasses.

Yup^

So I should have argued more because she told me wrong.

I am so mad about this, I need to see.

You so mad you can’t see straight?? haha

@MakeItSo1701 If you still have your old glasses, wear them until you get these fixed or replaced.

I am wearing the old ones.
