[QUOTE="Andy, post: 339766, member: 5096"] Too late for this piece of advise but it may help someone else along the way. After a few times of walking out of eye docs with new glasses and not really being able to walk in confidence (amazing how taller I get with each new prescription!), I started waiting until the NEXT day to start wearing new prescriptions. After a night's sleep, your eyes adjust easier to glasses than changing from one prescription to the next while you are awake. For the bifocals or trifocals, do you tend to move your eyes alot up and down? If so, try slowing down that movement some to give your eyes more time to adjust. That is hard to do since our eye movements are so habitual - who "THINKS" about how they move from second to second? Time to relearn to see. Need to train your eyes again and often times that means to slow everything way down until you get the movements down pat. Good Luck! [/QUOTE]
