No, Adjustment : If you have tried them for a few days and are not adapting to the new prescription, I recommend a call to the eye doc that prescribed them and have your glasses fit evaluated & your refraction double checked. At times all that is needed is a fit adjustment. Other times, your lenses may need to be remade with a new prescription. Good luck.
