Last visit to the eye doc brought about the recommendation to make the jump to progressives--it wasn't that bad but she thought I should get used to them, as it's inevitable. I decided to be a cheapskate and got a pair through Zenni; I have my daily glasses as single prescription and am quite happy with them, so I did a mid range progressive as I do a lot of computer work and wanted to try that out. Which I'm finding to be great reading glasses instead, and not usable for working at the computer like I hoped for. I suspect that I might be getting cheap results from cheap glasses, but, maybe not. What I don't like is if I look at something to the left of my vision, if I rotate my head to the left and eventually look to the right of my vision, the focus changes in and out as I look at the object. With a good pair of optics I can look out any corner of my glasses and there is very little distortion (dead on is best but usually there is a bit of change towards the edges).
I've heard others say that they were told to point their nose at what they want to see. Is this going to be the new reality for me, eventually? Just feels weird.
I suspect that if the viewing panes are really that small, that getting Pd measurement must become really critical. And might explain why my Zenni's don't feel right, I thought I had Pd right but I find myself having to look out the left side of things to focus the best.
