Optician eye test inaccurate?
I had an eye test at the optician about a week ago, and the glasses were ready for collection yesterday. Anyway, I have them—and people can be sharp with them anyway, but they still don't feel quite right… something's not right… I think I have more deopters than the lenses currently show. And unfortunately, I've already paid for everything. Can I talk to them and get my money back, or just go to the optician and the price will stay the same, except that they'll make new lenses with my exact deopter count? I mean, if it's not a perfect match, it's not that bad, is it? …or is it simply because the human eye needs to get used to it or adjust to it, at first?? But even so, I don't think anything will change much, and I can't describe exactly what's wrong. I wouldn't call it blurry, but something like that.

Hello,
Is that your first glasses?
Or has your vision changed to old glasses? It can be that you have to get used to something first.
But maybe you didn’t give precise information on the vision test?
?
Yes. If you can’t see clearly, that’s counterproductive. You get glasses because you want to see clearly and sharp again.
The best thing is, you go to the optician and explain it to him.
These vision tests, in which one looks on boards and reads letters, can be quite unreliable. However, this is not (always) due to the inability of the optician, but also to the fact that the visual force can fluctuate. For example, you can see more blurred when you have more dry eyes. That’s why the sight decreases in many towards the evening.
The eye test at the ophthalmologist is much more reliable. They can measure this with devices. The waiting time for an appointment is longer.
Many opticians offer that they will correct a glasses again for free if something is wrong. I don’t know if it’s yours. You better go and tell your situation. I don’t think they’ll refuse help. With many, the glasses are not always right at the moment.
That’s all bullshit. The visual test with the ophthalmologist is often (not always!) uneasy than the optician. Ophthalmologists, as the name suggests, are medical professionals who deal with the health of the organ eye. Optics, on the other hand, are the experts for vision tests, spectacles and everything related thereto.
Apart from this: Automatically determined values can be incorporated into a spectacle by means of autorefractometers (which you probably mean by ‘devices’). A subjective check by means of measurement glasses or phoropter on a visual sample board is absolutely necessary.
Could have been more respectful, but good. This “sense” is exactly what my eye doctor personally said to me a few months ago. If this is not reliable enough as a source, I don’t know. Apart from that, I never said that the ophthalmologist did not make any visual tests with a table.
The eye test at the ophthalmologist is much more reliable.
However, you must know that this so-called refraction, i.e. the determination of a spectacle lens thickness, has not been taught in studies as an ophthalmologist for a long time. This may be a few old eye doctors or those who have learned it in a quick course with an optic master or even are eye optics masters themselves. Ophthalmologists are not professionals for everything related to glasses.
Go and let your vision be determined with glasses, they have been mistaken during the first measurement and your glasses are incorrectly made, of course you will get a new one.
