I've often had difficulty getting eyeglass prescriptions that work
well for me. With increasing age, my vision has changed radically, so I really need a new pair of glasses.
In an attempt to get a really correct prescription, I've gone to
three sources for a new one. One is from an Ophthalmologist, and the
other two are from Optometrists. All three people have excellent
reputations.
The Ophthalmologist prescribed
OD -3.00 +2.25 X180
OS -1.50 +1.00 X020
Converted to negative cylinder (so I can compare it with the
Optometrists' prescriptions), that would be
OD -0.75 -2.25 X90
OD -0.50 -1.00 X110
The other two were...
Optometrist #1
-0.25 -1.75 X028
+0.25 -1.75 X144
Optometrist #2
+1.25 -1.50 X085
+0.25 -1.50 X135
These three prescriptions seem pretty different to my untrained eye.
Are they pretty far off from each other? Which one do you think I should
use to get glasses made? Or should I keep shopping for more
prescriptions and see if a consensus emerges?
