    Adaptation issues - from Essilor 1.74 to Hoya 1.70, same frame, same prescription

    Hi All,
    I've gotten new glasses a couple of days ago. Same prescription, same frame. After doing my research on the advantages of Hoya 1.74 36 Abbe value and superior optis over other high index lenses, I selected them with a Super Hi Vision AR coating. My prescription is OD -10.00 cyl -2.50 axis 41 OS -7.25 cyl -2.75 axis 145.
    After two days of wearing the new glasses, I'm still having adaptation issues, especially when reading. The old Essilor 1.74 lenses seem to have a better peripheral vision when looking at a computer screen, but poorer for distance.
    The glasses were bought at two separate optical shops, where measurements were taken separately.
    What may be causing the adaption issue? Should I suspect a faulty lens placement within the frame? Give it more time?
    I'd been wearing the Essilor lenses for the past 3.5 years.
    Thank you

    You need to see your eyecare professional in person.
