If you had a new pair of glasses with/after an eye test and felt the new glasses were not what you needed, they make you giddy/seasick, give you issues when walking, etc, would you return to the same opticians or try a different opticians?
as a 66 year old diabetic i get free eye tests, i have the prescription for the new glasses..
thanks
ive had them over a week and they arent settling in

How big is the change in prescription?
First stop is back to the dispensing opticians to see what's wrong.
Do the old glasses still work?
