Minification issue in eyeglasses.

2021-08-02 19:46:25
Earlier : I had -0.5 in both eyes ( 6 years ago ) and I used aviator type eyeglasses (wide size) Now : I have -1.75 and -1.25 and i am using new eyeglasses with circluar rims ( smaller size than aviator glasses ). But now i feel that all the things i see appear a bit smaller ( with circular rims ) than they used to appear when compared with aviator thus ( minification of images issue ). It is putting strain on my eyes from few days and my reading speed is become slower and and i dont feel comfortable ..i like images to be bigger. Should i change my eye glasses from circular back to aviator type ??? Will it solve...or should i change to any particular type of lenses which will solve minification issue. Plz help..any suggestion...what should i do..

Minimization at this power is not possible. Get your eye check up done again and wear suitable glasses according to your face and power .

Hi Minification can't really happen with this number . May be prismatic effect at edges. You hv to opt for slightly bigger glasses. Move your head wherever you want to see.

Please get your power rechecked. Your number isn't that high to cause significant minification of images. A rectangular and a narrow frame is better suited for minus number to avoid any prismatic effects. A circular and larger ones are best suited for plus numbers.

Hi, Minification of images is due to the increasing minus number of your glasses( the more the minus the number,  the smaller the image.),  not due to the type of eyeglasses you use.  As long as there is clarity in your vision,  you need not worry about image minification.
