And, just to muddy the waters *slightly,* let me point out that some people
are more sensitive to PD variations, than others.
Some people are just super-sensitive to this type of thing. I can actually
feel the difference between a 62mm and a 61mm PD in my glasses. Most people
cannot.
If you're not feeling any discomfort, then you're not one of us
super-sensitive people...believe me, we can *tell* when it's not quite
right! You *would* know, immediately.
