I picked up my new glasses today and the world looks like a different place. As these are progressive lenses, even things right in front of my face look clearer than before. Considering that I've been needing to take off my glasses and playing telescope with my arm to read lately, this is a welcome change.
I have also noticed that my 3D vision is more acute. I believe that part of this is because of the way progressive lenses distort at the edges. This makes items that I focus on seem to pop out at me.
Unfortunately, those blurred edges also take some getting used to. I keep thinking that my glasses are smudged on the sides, and I have to get into the habit of turning my head more to look at things if I want to see them clearly. I also need to stop tilting my head as it gives me (at least, for now) a sort of motion sickness from the shifting angles.
Still, it's nice to see the world clearly again.
