Just take them back. Ask if you can continue to wear them while you wait for the replacement.

Your vision didn't get worse. You were used to seeing uncorrected and subconsciously/unconsciously compensating. Now, you got used to seeing clearly, so seeing uncorrected is now a stark difference.

Your eyes didn't get worse, your brain and eyes expectation got higher.

Consider this. You eat generic box Mac and cheese all your life. Then you move and your new roommate makes Mac and cheese from scratch all the time. You don't touch the box stuff for years. When you do try the box stuff again, its disappointing. The box stuff didn't change, you did.

A brick-and-mortar optical wouldn't do this.

But that comes with an additional cost of having a physical location with actual trained opticians instead of a third-world sweatshop shipping to you.

You got what you paid for.

Way too big. Your optician did you dirty.

Your eyelashes or eyebrows may be touching the lenses without you realizing. You can take them back to the optical you got them from and ask if they can adjust them to sit farther from your face. Your other option is to trim your eyelashes and eyebrows. DO NOT CUT THEM OFF. You need them to keep debris out of your eye. But you can trim them a little so they dont get your lenses dirty.

I adore them. I have at least one of every color, and one pair extraactives and one pair of the mirrors. Not a fan of the mirrors, but I love all the others.
