Whether you've worn glasses for years or this is your first pair, adjusting to a new prescription can take some time. It's completely normal and usually lasts up to two weeks. As long as your prescription was accurately prescribed by an eye care professional and your frames are properly fitted, your eyes should gradually adapt. Here are our top tips to help you get used to your new glasses smoothly.
Â
Get Fitted Properly
When you first put on your new glasses, your vision will likely feel sharper than before. However, it’s common to feel a bit off at first. You might notice things appearing too clear, experience some peripheral distortion, or even have a headache. These symptoms are usually temporary and should go away within a few days. If they persist beyond a week, it’s a good idea to consult your optometrist or have your frames adjusted by a professional. This is especially true if you're wearing a new prescription or have been using the same one for many years. Keep in mind that precise measurements like pupillary distance (PD) and lens height (OC or SEG) are crucial for optimal performance of your glasses.
Â
Take Your Time
Give yourself time to adjust by starting with low-activity situations. Activities like reading, watching TV, or working on a computer are great ways to get used to your new lenses without feeling overwhelmed. Avoid driving, running, or walking until you feel more comfortable. If your prescription has changed significantly, it may take longer for your brain to adapt. Be patient—your eyes will catch up in time.
Â
Be Mindful of Your Frames
Wearing glasses is a lifestyle change, so it's important to treat them with care. Clean your lenses regularly with a microfiber cloth and avoid sleeping in your frames. Taking care of your eyewear helps maintain clear vision and extends their lifespan. Also, always remove your glasses with both hands to prevent misalignment.

Â
Expect Some Changes
Some people worry that wearing glasses frequently leads to dependency, but that’s not accurate. Your eyes aren’t becoming dependent on your prescription—they’re just getting used to seeing more clearly. Give yourself time to adjust and wear your glasses consistently to make the most of them. It's also best to avoid switching between old and new prescriptions, as this can confuse your brain and slow down the adjustment process.
