Thanks to all who responded.

This was the exact same prescription as the new glasses he received two months ago. He gets them from Davis vision. So two months ago, he went to the eye glass place, they examined him, and he got new glasses. Exactly one month later, he dropped the glasses, they broke and he found out he was entitled to a replacement pair.

These, he received yesterday. He thinks it's the glasses also. He seems fine since this little episode last night.

I really thought it was the stress attack (I DO NOT BELIEVE IN COINCIDENCES). It just seemed that after he got so upset, that later on in the day, he got dizzy.

But he also got the new glasses and I googled "new glasses and dizzy spells" and a whole bunch of similar stuff came up on the internet. Seems like this is VERY COMMON with people who just got new glasses and some people take 9 days to get used to them.

He did not have this happen 2 months ago when he got the new pair. He just put them on and every thing was fine. But maybe yesterday???

These are bi-focals (with the line). He always wears these.

He is perfectly fine with wearing bifocals. He is doing this for years. I see him putting up his head to see stuff, and bringing down his head to use the other part of the glasses.

I think the bottom part is for reading?? Not sure, I don't wear bi-focals.

He's sleeping now. I'm going out for a while.

Tonight is he neuropathy support group meeting in NYC.

I shall update you all of any new interests and discussions from this meeting. I'll start a new thread.

so here's to it being JUST HIS GLASSES. (I told him to bring the new ones back and tell the guy what happened).

Should he wear them some more to see what happens??
