Professor Vyacheslav Kurenkov, a specialist in ophthalmology and eye surgery, points out that some people experience dizziness and nausea when wearing corrective glasses for the first time.

According to him, this is not a reason to avoid wearing glasses or correcting one's vision.
He states:
"Feeling dizzy when wearing glasses is a common phenomenon, especially among first-time users. This happens because when a person wears glasses for the first time, the brain begins to perceive many details it hadn’t noticed before, which overwhelms cognitive processing and may lead to dizziness, nausea, or even headaches."
This reaction, he explains, is temporary and gradually fades. The brain adapts to the correction, filters out unnecessary information, and the unpleasant symptoms disappear.
He adds that using corrective glasses at the first signs of vision deterioration helps prevent its progression, particularly in cases of true refractive errors.
He explains:
"There is a temporary condition known as pseudomyopia. In such cases, if nearsightedness is mistakenly considered to be real and the doctor prescribes corrective glasses, it may not be beneficial and could even have serious consequences. However, in all other cases, once refractive errors are confirmed, vision correction is essential—whether through glasses, contact lenses, or, if age permits, laser correction."
