Why are my New Prescription Glasses so Fuzzy?

[Ro_Laren]

My eyesight is pretty good, but I wear progressives 'cause I am a little farsighted. I went to the optometrist last week since I hadn't gone since 2005 and one of my lenses was scratched. The doc said that I needed new lenses for my glasses (I needed a little stronger prescription). My lenses finally came in today and they were put into my frames. I have the same prescription for both eyes, but the one on the right is fuzzy whereas the one on the left is fine. Is that normal? I know that sometimes when you get new glasses they're fuzzy so you need to wait a week to adjust. But, is it normal to have probs with only one eye?????

Might be a bad lens, or wrong prescription, it happens. I'd go back and have the lens checked.

Agreed. That happened to me a few months ago. A transcription error when typing my prescription into the computer left me fuzzy in my left eye. I gave it three weeks before going back in - only to have them say "Oh you should have let us know right away!" They ordered a new one with no problem, but I thought it was just me having to get used to a new lens.
