I've worn glasses/contacts for almost 15 years.  Two years ago I went
to a new eye doctor to have an exam.  From the very beginning something
seemed wrong with the prescription for my contacts and glasses.  It
took almost 9 months to finally settle on a pair of contacts...and I do
mean settle because I never felt I was seeing quite right but I gave in
because the doctor was treating me like I was making things up.  He
went as far as to tell me that if the last pair of contacts didn't
work, then I just wouldn't be able to wear contacts because I was too
hard to fit.

Last week I went to a different eye doctor who noticed and informed me
immediately that my prescrption was obviously overcorrected  - by 3
levels !  At my original appointment two years ago, I bought 2 pairs of
expensive prescription glasses (one for everyday and prescription
sunglasses) in addition to a years worth of contacts.  Replacing the
lenses on both pairs of glasses with my new prescription will cost
almost $500.  Not to mention all the money I spent on the contact
lenses that I couldn't see right in.  I feel like my original eye
doctor should have to cover the replacement even though it has been 2
years since I was given the prescription.

So my question is this....Do eyes magically get that much better in 2
years time?  Is there anything I can do to prove that they gave me the
wrong prescription?  Is there anything I can do about this at all?
