Please help.  I have had both eyes operated on, new glasses, varifocal.  But my glasses are making me dizzy.  As I sit at the table the table looks to be falling away.  Optician says it is my brain that needs re training.

    Why do you need varifocal ?

      Optician prescribed them.  I can see far away but not at all near without glasses.  With glasses on everything not level.  Optician says my brain will take a while to accept this.

      After my cataract operations I only need reading glasses although optician also suggested a second pair or bifocals for compter mid distance use.

      Opticians always want to prescribe them as they are expensive.

    Your glasses are the wrong prescription AND they have used cheap quality plastic with the varifocal.  Go back to the shop again and they will rectify - it is not your brain, happened to my friend who had been happily wearing varifocals for years, they tried that story with her - outcome - they changed them and gave her the quality plastic of her old glasses and she had no problems after that.
