I recently had some eyeglasses made and while wearing them for two weeks I experienced constant headaches. I went to my Optometrist (not where I got the glasses) and he said that I needed a base curve of +3.75 in each lens. The lenses of these new glasses were much flatter---base curve of +2.25 and +1.50. I'm having the glasses redone for free, but my question is: Should this base curve have been specified in my prescription, or should the optician who dispensed the specs have measured the base curve in my current glasses in order that the new ones to be the same? This has never come up before, I've worn corrective lenses for 25 years. Also, the base curve was different in each new lens, was that a mistake? Thanks!
My Rx is :
OD -5.75 -1.00 005 OS -6.00 -0.75 180 add +1.25 in both
