A member asked:
Is it normal to experience a weird, vertigo feeling after receiving a newer prescription for eyeglasses with astigmatism?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It can happen: These sort of symptoms will usually resolve in less than a week if you will wear only the new glasses as much as possible.
