New glasses causing tired eyes
I recently got a new set of frames on 21st June.
My eye power is -6 for the right eye, -5.25 for the left eye.
I had recently (on 9th June) visited an ophthalmologist because I was facing a dry eye issue causing redness of the eyes. However, my vision has not been affected at all. The doctor prescribed Normo Tears eyedrops 3 times a day, and Ocurest AH 2 times a day for 2 months. I was also asked to reduce digital screen time.
The redness has reduced significantly.
But I keep facing tired eyes and pain on my eyelids ever since I started using the new glasses.
What could be the problem? My eye power has not changed in the last 5 years.
