I am 45 years old and have never wore contacts. My prescription reads D.V. O.D. -0.75 +0.75 AXIS 90
O.S. plano +0.25 AXIS 75
N.V. O.D. +1.50
O.S. +1.50
I have been to the lens office 3 times and it went as follows: gave me a trial pair of Focus Progressives and watched me put them in, take them out and put them back in. I told them that I could not see out of them and it had been about 15 minutes that they had been in. Vison much worse than with nothing. Told me to give it a few days and call. Waited two days and called, was told to come in next afternoon they would have different contacts for me. I went in and they just handed me two trials of Focus Progressives that say 2.00 on them. I asked if I needed to try them on there and was told no, give them a couple of days and if not better call us. I went back this past Monday and told them" My distant vison is terrible and my close up is bad". She told me to try taking the right lens out and to just wear the left lens! Told to call back if after a few days I was not seeing better. I tried it all day yesterday and today. I now have a headache and still do not see well. Is there a contact lens that would possibly work for me. I want crisp clear vison . My vison is obviously not terrible but I work on a computer a lot and my favorite hobby is reading....both which are hard to do now. If not in extremly bright light it is very hard for me to see and due to strain am having daily headaches.I obviously will be going to a different office to be fitted. I just lack any knowledge in this area and would like some suggestions on lenses and to be told what I should expect from someone that is fitting me. Sorry so long but tired of not seeing and at end of my rope.
Thank you in advance for any help,
Debbie
