Have you recently started wearing progressive lenses? These are in a way the next generation of the bifocal and trifocal, which can adjust for farsightedness, nearsightedness and more. The prescription
changes gradually from the top part of the lens to the bottom. This allows the same vision correction as bifocals and trifocals without the annoying line or social stigma.
It's important to realize that there may be a bit of an adjustment period to these lenses, especially the first time you get some.
Here are a few tips on making the transition go smoothly:
- Practice looking at objects at different distances
- Try reading a book and watching TV at the same time. This will help your eyes get used to going between near and far focus
- Instead of moving your eyes to see things at different distances, try moving your head.
- Keep wearing your new lenses, no matter how annoying they are. Don't go back to your old ones!
