[QUOTE="ProDave, post: 357453, member: 6969"] I do feel there is something "wrong" with the readers they have given me. Reading another thread on another forum someone got the wrong glasses. He said he knew that because turning them upside down made no difference. Well just for fun I tried that. With them upside down, I don't get the horrid distortion of the PC screen, and I can focus over a greater range, I can even see my feet in focus when stood up. but they are not right like that, the left eye is never really quite right at any distance. So I think I'll have to go back, explain the problem and see what they can come up with. The "test" for the reading bit was in hindsight a bit basic. He gave me a card with different size texts and tried different lenses until we found the best ones. but of course that was close up reading, not VDU distance or "work" distance. It's the horrible distortion of the PC screen that gets me most. I've never heard a spectacle wearer mention that before, and I really don't think I could ever get used to it. and I shouldn't have to, I don't see that issue with my self select ones. Otherwise it's back to the pound shop. [/QUOTE]
