Dear Yesenia915,
I would try the contact lenses on a day when you are not dilated. If your symptoms persist, I would go back to your doctor or see an eyeMD to recheck the prescription.

If you think the precription is too high - one of the symptoms would be worsened near vision. Call your doctor and explain your symptoms and get rechecked. Very simple.

I'm not the doctor, this is the Expert Forum, but:
1) the dilation effect can last several hours and could be causing you to have the extra-bright/glare sensation in light, it should go away
2) your prescription is increased slightly, not a huge amount, so you can see better far away, but this may cause your close-up vision to be less clear. The MD is going by how you read the eye chart. Talk to him about your close-up vision, maybe you need reading glasses, or need to be more nearsighted in one eye (monovision) so you can read up close with that one.
