Re: Incorrect Prism - Any Legal Action?

I actually have been wearing one side higher than the other, as it was
a natural way to reduce my discomfort - I wasn't even aware that I was
doing it until I thought to get them adjusted. My prescription is ~5
in each eye. I am wearing my uglier backup pair now, and have gotten
used to how "normal" feels. Its much more comfortable, especially in
the periphery and transitioning between looking through the lenses and
looking up or down without the lens.

To get 2,5 prism height difference in your glasses (supposed S-/+ 5.00 dpts R and L) you have to fit the glasses with a difference in heigt of 0,5 mm in front of the pupils.
