Went back to the eye doctor's (again) told them about the problems I was having (again) they sorted out what the problem was (this time), and sent the first pair of frames back to the lab for new lenses (again).
This is it, once I get this perscription sorted out, I'm going back to my old doctor that I saw as a kid. Prices at a private practice will probably be higher than a large chain that has special 'buy two pairs, get a discount on the frames and a free exam' deal, but I never had these problems with my old doc. They've been very helpful at Chain Store and want to get it right and fix it for me without me having to pay anything else (which is good because all those deals don't mean much when your perscription demands the most expensive premium lenses, I could have bought the Bobobie Ming I wanted and my Pixiu for what I paid for these!), but I never had a problem with the glasses from my old doctor.
I guess now I know what those tests with lining up the lines on the different cards was for. But really, Chain Store doc, if you know that I have an incredibly bad astigmatism, why wouldn't you measure exactly where my pupils are and where they're focusing? I'm 1mm off center left to right, and 2 up and down, which is just enough to really throw off my ability to focus when the lenses aren't made to take that into account! At least now I know. The perscription seems to be right, but they've slacked some important details.
I hope they come back right this time. I should've sent the oval frames back the first time they tried to remake my lenses. I miss my awesome purple rectangular frames!
