So I picked up my new glasses yesterday. It took a few hours to adjust to them. I noticed right away that they were much, much lighter, being that they have plastic lenses that are much smaller than my old ones.
That being said, though, I'm not sure I can handle them. I noticed right away that I had to turn my head and look directly at something for it to be in proper focus. I couldn't just move my eyes. This has been even more noticeable today at work, where I would normally just move my eyes around my computer screen. This doesn't work so well. I don't know if it's the smaller size of the lenses, or the fact that they're plastic. If it keeps up throughout the morning, I'll be calling to the optical shop and discussing it with them.
Update: After talking with the optical shop, the most likely candidate is the plastic lenses. While the high-index plastic is optically superior to polycarbonate, it's not as good as glass. Sandy, the optician, will adjust my frames on Tuesday, and if I still don't like it, we'll switch to glass, no charge.
