No matter where you buy your eyeglasses it is always best to have them professionally adjusted to improve their fit and comfort. It will help you see better too.
If you are looking to purchase prescription glasses online, it is important to continue seeing your eye doctor yearly for eye health evaluations. Although you may be seeing well, many eye diseases may creep up without affecting your eyesight until it's too late.

I've been wearing glasses since I was a year old. Since I was a kid, I could see that distortion you talked about on the edges of my strong polycarbonate lenses, but the eye doctor just told me that I must be imagining it, because apparently gaslighting children is acceptable. It's there, and it's why I wear contacts as much as possible.

I can't wear polycarbonate either because I see colors feathering off the edges of objects. I stick with CR 39. Best for me.
Where I live there are hundreds of optical stores, I have used eyeglasses for a long time and although I visited almost all of them, none of them honestly clarified the difference between the materials. They just told me that polycarbonate was the best material against scratches (which is why I always chose it) when in reality it is not, in addition to putting more emphasis on trying to sell treatments that are not so important. I always trusted their opinion as professionals but the 80% of them (or they employees) only have the mentality of merchants ... it was not until now that I began to learn more thanks to content like this and decide for myself which product is suitable. Thank you very much !

Yup I can’t believe I kept listening to them. I got glasses with polycarbonate lenses that were recommended for me, and it made my eyes look small and distorted, even got headaches. That was until I did more researched and ordered high index glasses from Ray-Ban to accommodate my higher prescription and it made such a huge difference. My eyes look less distorted, and I don’t get fatigue anymore. I used to hate wearing glasses for this particular reason, now I actually wear them everyday lol
Your page is amazing. You broke this down in such a simple way. Easy to understand. Now I know exactly what I need. I appreciate this. Thank you.

Thank you Dr. Eye Health, that was very Informational. I didn't know about the different Lens Types that are available.
Thanks for such an informative video Dr. Allen! I had wondered what Trivex lenses were. Didn't get glasses until age 42, so went straight to Progressives. What could be better than a lens that has every different section allow you to have perfect vision depending on where you're looking? I understand for people who don't start out with them it takes some getting used to. But since they were the first lenses I wore they were a natural for me. Love photochromatic Transitions lenses, as well! The new XtraActive versions are great for people with light sensitivity. They always have the slightest tint and then change tint readily with the strength of the light they're exposed to. Although I have regular transitions as well. I do have non photochromatic lenses for indoors or night time, especially for night driving. 😎

Great video Doc. I have a -3.25 and -3.5 with -1 of astigmatism in each eye and I just recently received my new glasses with the 1.69 index. Way lighter and thinnner than the polycarbonate ones I used to have! Feels great on the face. Also ordered a slightly lower perscription ( lower by 0.25 in each eye) for computer with Blue Light blocking. I find that computer usage requires less lens power to see clearly than other activities. I then have to switch back when looking for. But at least I don’t mind!

Hello, in October I started being through laser sessions due to retinal tears. Soon after I began seeing these bright spots (which later I found out to fit perfectly with the blue field entoptic phenomenon); not to mention an increase in floaters. Any thoughts on what could have caused it? Thanks for the informative content :)

Hey Danilo. Thanks for sharing that. Tough to say why you are seeing the blue field entoptic phenomenon after all that. But very interesting because I see it too. (really want to do a video on that). Floaters are more common after any eye surgery, particularly a retinal surgery. But changes to the vitreous gel and growth of floaters do often cause retinal tears as well.
Thanks a lot doc. I'll keep an eye on you 😘😆

I have a question just changed from rectangular lenses to oval and with first time blue light and already have had them for almost two weeks and on the side of the lenses I see blurry and in the front I see perfectly fine. What do you think it might be?
@slipknot19968
2 жыл бұрын
It could be a “base curve” issue. Sometimes going from rectangular frame into that oval can add more curvature to the material. This is something that can be fixed, if your optical shop has control over their lenses (most do). A blue light filter (or most other coatings) have very little effect on your overall quality of vision. Finally if the base material of your lens has changed it could also be that you aren’t adapting. I’ve worked in optical for 2 1/2 years in a specialists office. The only real answer to your question is to talk to your DOCTOR or OPTICIAN. They will be able to give you an actual answer. The things I suggested above are only the cases I typically see.

Docter superb. Glasses for better field vision for glaucoma patients .Thanks
Dr. Allen, I am really hoping you will make a video about "progressive lens options", especially those that are digitally designed. My recent discussions with a number of opticians were about new digital progressive lenses, supposedly superior (and more costly) than earlier ones. They were described as being "top tier" or "premiere" because they are individually designed for a patient's specific prescription, and have a better range of vision levels than older lenses. What are your thoughts about this new technology? Really hoping to hear your perspective before I purchase :-). Thank you.

So much great information in this video. 😊 7:53 Something to be aware of with high index lenses is that, the higher the index the lower the Abbe value, which means you're going to see more chromatic aberration (colour fringing) around the edges of the lenses. Some high index lenses have an Abbe value as low as 31, which isn't great for the clarity of the lens.

I have an Rx of -9.50 / -11.50 and usually have to get 1.74 hight index lenses. Is there any other lens that is thinner than that? Also to make it more complicated due to age (54) I also have presbyopia (+2.50) for reading. Any recommendations? I was told that I have to have progressive lenses and can not use a bifocal lenses. Is that still the case? Thank you for your great videos. Very instructional and helpful. Thanks again.
I've worn glasses and contacts all my life. I've found as an adult, letting the provider be in charge of everything is just not an option anymore. I had one provider just out of school, really push me for monovision contacts. Seeing one distance in one eye, and one in another. I told her no, that drives me absolutely crazy, but she continued to push it, telling me how much I would love it. But I refused. When I get my contacts? Guess what the prescription was. I was furious to have wasted my money on something that I ended up going to another doctor and starting all over again to get what I needed. You have to find someone you can trust, who you can respect, and who respects you and your needs and will listen. I've found an awesome provider recently, and will never change. Check the reviews, due your due diligence, and get educated. And find that respect factor. It makes a huge difference.

I’m diabetic. Sometimes in the mornings or at night my visón is great without my eyeglasses on. Would you recommend having an eye exam twice,once during a great vision day & one on a bad day? I’ve had lenses years ago on a good day and on a bad day,they were almost useless or were. Ugh. Danke
