I'm asmused when someone with -8 or such describes it as severe myopia. I'm -15. THAT is severe myopia, lol.
If the glasses have never been satisfactor ask for your money back or if the RX needs to be changed ask that it be done free. At our clinic we have a 60 day warranty on all glasses and all changes are made without charge.

Thanks for your answer. I hope I don't have to get new glasses as they are very costly lenses and are quite new. About a year ago I could get my eyes to focus better if I stared at some text for a while. I also notice I can focus better if my eyes are even closer than the clearest point.

No its not strabismus. Your focal point without glasses or contacts is so close that your eyes can't turn in (converge) properly and one eye starts to focus and the other turns out. If its normal with glasses or contacts no problem.
Have a reliable optician check the OPTICAL CENTERS of both pairs of glasses and be sure that they are both over your pupil. Sounds like the newer pair may not have been ground properly.
