O.S. -3.75  +0.25  x107
ADD +2.50

Background: I had cataract surgery in my good eye last year and the vision
is set for 16." I wear -2.50 glasses with little bit of astigmatism
correction (-.75, 170) for distance vision. When my doc tried that

them on to work on my PC. These new glasses made it appear as though the
horizontal, top surface of my monitor was angled ...

Please forgive me if this has been covered.  I have only a little
strength to search/read right now.  On Sat. Jan. 6th  I suffered a
freak fall leaving a sporting complex.  Long story short is that I fell
hard and messed up the right side of my face pretty bad.  I can see
