new glasses causing migraines?

new glasses causing migraines?

I just got new frames and a new prescription last weekend and everyday since the first day I wore them i have had migraines and things look clearer yet wierd like a video game or something.  my new lenses look less curved than the old ones and the frames are a different shape--i have astigmatism.  are the glasses what's causing the headaches?  will they go away after i get used to them and how long will that take?

Dear Mufasasprincess7,

It is possible that the glasses are contributing to your headaches especially if the astigmatism and its axis was changed.  I would recommend wearing them for about one week. If you cannot adjust, have your eyes rechecked by the eyeMD.
