Fresnel Prisms
Prisms attach to your glasses to aid the symptom of double vision where the correct prism is cut to fit the shape of your glasses and adheres with water and stays in place with suction. It is normal to find that your vision may be a little blurred with the additional layer on your glasses.
Your prism can be maintained with warm soapy water. The use of harsh chemical should be avoided to ensure the longevity of the prism.
