Hello

The prescription of glasses described by you it appears that you have an astigmatic error in the right eye. For astigmatic errors, you should use the glasses constantly for an indefinite period and not for a specified period.

The problem of difficulty in seeing unaided should not occur after the use of glasses if the prescription of glasses given to you is correct. So, it is advisable to get your refraction done again and use correct glasses if needed.

You can also use a lubricating eye drop for soothing effect.
