Eye balls are paining after wearing specs for cylindrical power

Hi,

This is for my 6 yr kid , who had a complaint of not able to see the black board properly. So we went to pediatric ophthalmologist . He detected cylindrical power of 3.0 in both the eyes and prescribed specs . We also got the specs according to the doctor prescription , now after wearing the specs my son is complaining pain in eye balls . He tells that he gets pain in eye balls when he wears specs. Please any one tell what is the problem and what should be done next ?

He needs to adapt the the new glasses.  This is a common problem.  Your doctor may need to decrease the astigmatism and then gradually increase it as he adapts.  He should wear the glasses full time.  See your doctor if the problem  persists after a week or so,
