Prism prescription in glasses Posted: 01-05-08 23:47pm


Has anyone ever had this prescription put in their eyeglasses? My past eye doctor put it in about 5 years ago and my new doctor said I don't need it? It's hard to read books,newspapers,etc... when I read the words tends to mix together example the top line and next line jumble together. This is very frustrating trying to read and the story doesn't make any sense at all. It helped when I had it in and now I am past the 30 days to exchange them. My new eye doctor kept telling it will take time to get use to your new glasses. Well it hasn't happened and my insurance won't cover new ones for another 1 and 1/2 years. I could scream. Thanks for letting me vent..

Hi Why won't you get your eyes fixed? I don't have the cross eye problems, my problem is when I am trying to read a book it drives me nuts.
