My Contacts Prescription?

Question

ok well, i've been wearing contacts for about 3 yrs now but last year i ordered mine from 1 800 Contacts. my doctor wrote down my prescription, but 1 800 contacts sent me the wrong prescription for my left eye. Instead of 0.75, which was the one my doctor wrote down, they sent me a years supply of - 0.50 contacts. they felt perfectly fine and i could see just fine with them in. I wear different contacts in each eye (-4.75 in my right and 0.75 in my left) so i didn't realize the prescription was wrong. now i have the right prescription, but it feels weird and it takes me a while to focus with them in.

will this go away? should i see my doctor? am i just adjusting to the new prescription after wearing the wrong ones for a year?

thank you for your help!

Answer 1

After wearing the wrong ones for so long, you'd adjusted to them. If you wear your correct lenses from now on, your eyes will adjust to those too. ;) Trust me, I've had this problem too!

Answer 2

your eyes are just adjusting :)

Answer 3

Something isn't right..you shouldn't have any problems adjusting if you have the right prescription.

Answer 4

if u have the right prescription, u should get used to them. i have different numbers in both eyes, and i kno how weird it feels when i mix them up sometimes. if the feeling doesnt go away after a week or so, talk to ur doctor
