Spectacles are custom made to a person's optical prescription. If you use an old presctiption, you may begin suffereing from eye strain as your eyes are trying to see correctly with an old or out of date script. Usually, in Australia, spectical presctiptions are valid for 2 years from the date of the last eye test. If things aren't perfect with the script you have in thos spectacles, get a new eye test and update them.
