Those who wear glasses!
I just picked up a new pair and the lenses are much smaller than I am used to. When I look down-ish, my vision is past the lenses and everything is fuzzy. I guess that's normal, that your entire line of vision doesn't fall within the lenses??

Re: Those who wear glasses!
thanks guys!! I'm also not loving the frame - I think they gave me the wrong one, I don't remember the piece that goes back to the ears being a different color than the rest  . I feel like it looks weird.

Re: Those who wear glasses!
Most places will let you exchange them for like 2 weeks or so if you're unhappy with them. I did this a few times.

I had the same experience...especially when going down stairs!
It becomes like second nature pretty soon though.

I just called - they have a 30 day exchange policy (Lenscrafters). I am going to give it a day or two to see if I like them - maybe it happened for a reason!

Wait until you glance in your blind spot too! You get used to it though.

Re: Those who wear glasses!
the first time I'd fall asleep with a new pair on was always a weird experience too.

Re: Those who wear glasses!
Happens to me all the time. I find that when I'm reading, I'm not actually using my glasses. Then I end up doing the old lady thing and moving them down to the end of my nose so I can see through them.
But, really, I'm not old yet. I swear.

Re: Those who wear glasses!
My previous pair were the smallest lenses I've ever had. The frame landed right in my line of sight when I was reading. I would have to move my head slightly to get above the frame, or below it. I just got new ones a few weeks ago that are slightly larger, and made sure the frame wasn't in that same spot. I got used to the previous pair, so I didn't notice it much, but since I was getting new ones, I figured I would try to avoid that problem again.

Re: Those who wear glasses!
lol. same thing happened to me. i wasnt use to the small lenses, so everytime i looked down or side to side, it was blurry. your eyes will get used to the new size in no time.
