I’m a 2nd year optometry student and have brown eyes.And last semester, I was dilated 3-4 times a week for my classmates to practice some procedures.My near vision recovers in 1 hour and my pupils return to their normal state in 3-4 hours.

You could try a cold compress on the eye to make it feel better, but if it doesn’t improve, you need to get some eye drops for it from the chemist.|||Could just be an annoying itch or could be an infection. Stupid as it sounds try not to scratch it – the skin around your eye is very delicate

Now I’m at home, getting a headache trying to read through the glasses, (I read about 10 hours a day for work) and I know it takes time to get used to new glasses but I’m wondering, since I only wear my glasses for reading, if I have the right ones or if the optometrist just said what he said so he wouldn’t have to return them. any help???|||You need to post your perscription here. Distance glasses might mean you have an astigmatism and then they would help with reading. It could also be that you are holding the book to close.When you need distance glasses you can hold things closer to your eye than normal sighted people can and you tend to do this when reading so you can see the print.When you get glasses you are in the position of a normal sighted person and may need to move the book back. Took me ages to get the hang of this one as I had been in the habit of reading with teh book 2 inches from my face.

Posting your perscription will help the opticians who post to advise you. Headaches aren’t a normal thing of getting used to a new perscription. However if the frames are heavy or uncomfortable then that can be an effect. I also used to find that glare made headaches worse in offices before they brought out anti-glare coatings.|||If you get vision doubling when reading I’d take the glasses straight back to the optometrist. That is not correct at all.|||As a quick tix, pick up a pair of cheap reading glasses from the dollar store and either place them in front of the distance glasses, or get them strong enough to use by themselves.Or their are clip on reading glasses that you can use.

You also might be a good person for bifocals or progressive glasses.I use progressive with good results and also have farsightedness and astigmatism.|||What is your prescription? Right and left. Are you wearing a no line bifocal /progressive? Lined bifocal? How old are you? Is this your first pair of glasses? Do you have your previous prescription if its not your first pair? Seems like a lot of questions but all those things tell eye professional a lot about a patient and their needs. |||If you are shortsighted (you can’t see far objects), then you should use glasses for distance activities. You shouldn’t use distance glasses for near work such as reading if you can see the words clearly unaided.
