I dont think glasses can help correct ON, since ON is caused by a malfunctioning optic nerve.

I'd go to the eye doctor if I were you. (ophthalmologist, not an optician) They can adjust the Rx for you if you need new lenses.

I had ON in 2006, and got new glasses in 2007 and last summer. (my Rx changed 2yrs in a row) Eye doctor told me that was probably normal aging for me and probably not related to the ON.

I went to the eye doctor on friday, and he told me that my current Rx seems to be stable, so I didnt have to shell out tons of money for new lenses. (altho, I love picking out new frames...I've only been wearing glasses since 97, but I've bought new frames at least 7 or 8 times because I like getting new frames)
