Full time use: You should wear them full time for at least a week. If you are still having problems then return to the optician to see if they need an adjustment. If the problem still persists go back to the prescriber to see if a prescription modification is warranted.

Correct Rx?: Schedule a glasses recheck exam with your prescribing doctor. Sometimes there is an error in the prescription that can cause intolerable symptoms, such as blurred vision, distortion, eye strain, double vision, and even dizziness.
