Hi all,
I have had glasses because of nearsightedness for about 9 years, not
too bad, but driving and seeing a blackboard were too straining.  So
this year I decide to start jogging, and I find out quickly that
glasses are a pain.  I have used a nerd-strap to keep my glasses firm,
but I wanted to investigate contacts.  Besides, I was due free frames
or contacts this year anyways.

So I got fitted for contact lenses, and while my eyes have different
strengths, they decided to give both the same prescription.   One of
the metrics was -1.00 on both eyes, sorry it may be +1.00, the rx is at
home right now.

It took about 2 weeks to get used to them without getting a headache.
I had to learn to let my eyes be farsighted, and try not to concentrate
so much on very close objects.  But this farsightedness was not
comfortable for running.  If I had to suddenly focus on something
close, I got eyestrain, and a bit dizzy.

I then went back to my eye doctor, and requested an adjustment.  She
seemed to indicate that she was a tad relucatant, but I can't be sure.
She said she could ease up on my right eye and ordered me a -0.75
(sorry it may be 0.75, it's for nearsightedness).  Now with that, my
right eye is great but the fact that both of the eyes are different is
really messing me up.

Should I get used to this?  Should I go back to when it was not hurting
my eyes, but just a bit awkward in some situations (+1.00 in both
eyes).

For any advice, I would greatly appreciate it.  As far as I know, I
have no problems with the eyes like astigmatism.

Sincerely,
Dan
