This is not unusual. I wear contacts, and I've felt what you've felt before. It's usually a slight difference in the strength of your glasses vs your contacts which causes the dizziness. You might very well have the exact same prescription for both the contacts and the glasses, but what your eyes see through each are not exactly the same. Remember, contacts float on the surface of your eyes, where glasses lenses are an inch or so away. So your eyes need a moment to adjust. During this time, your equilibrium is a bit off, causing you to feel lightheaded.
Just to be sure, you may want to visit your eye doctor just to make sure that both prescriptions match.
Yes. With contacts you get 20/20 vision, unlike with glasses. You get dizzy cause your brain has to get used to not seeing so well.
If you have astigmatism, you may not be completely corrected in your contacts. This is common. When you put your glasses on, the full correction may be causing your brain to resist. Another thing is that you have a high rx and the vertex distance (the distance between your glasses an your eye) is not correctly calculated. The last thing is that the material of lens (in your glasses) does not match your rx. Ask your optician, then if you have no satisfation, ask your optometrist.
Yes, the brain needs to re-adapt to the spect.
