now is each side at 800 :(

temporary fix with black tape... getting new ones later... will be expensive :(

Power 800? Your specs going to be very thick.

yes... looking for thinner which cost more :(

wonder if can change just the frame since lens still good :D

Change lens ok. Change frame not so good. Usually the optical focus will shift. U want thinner means choose a narrower frame with thicker rims. Thats da best way.

If change frame only, use back old lens, the optical focus will not be accurate anymore?

Is it you mean after changing new frame, the center of the old lens will not be directly in the center of the eye?
Will PD be correct?

Yesh there will be a margin of error no matter what opticians or others tell u its ok. Unless u find back the same model as your old frame. Branded frames you may be able to order back the exact same model but for non-branded might have difficulties.

Hi anyone here wearing Crizal Eyezen lens?

I recently just bought Eyezen lens and after wearing it experience immense giddiness, when put on the glasses eyes felt very strain and dizzy.
Its like can't even put on for 1 hr.

The Eyezen lens degree is exactly the same as my previous 2 years old lens.
Not sure why i experience giddiness when lens degree is same.

Anyone experiencing the same?

Is your new frame rimless, while old frame is full rim?

yes, I also experience the same thing as you initially. Just need to get used to it for a week, if after that still the same effect then you'll have to go back to your optician for advice.
