if you're nearsighted you must use the glasses only when you need them. Your prescription is mild and a nearsighted person with such a low prescription must NEVER use glasses when their natural eyesight is enough. Whenever you can see well without glasses don't use them. If you can read, write, use the computer, eat, draw, etc., without glasses, then you must NOT use them, otherwise your eyesight will get worse quickly. Do not strain your eyes, just take off your glasses. Glasses are NEVER a therapy, and if used improperly they always make things worse.
Your prescription is mild but the the correction in your left eye has doubled, so it could take a bit longer to adjust to the new prescription. If you still feel uncomfortable in another day or two go back to the your eye specialist and explain the problem. Wearing or not wearing your glasses will not make your vision better or worse, but not wearing your glasses, especially if your nearsighted, could be dangerous to your health and those around you if you drive a car or need to see where you going, especially at night. It you are still in school it could also effect your grades, if you can't see the black board.

Make sure you're putting your glasses on as soon as you wake up, as that can help with the adjustment period. If after a week, they are still too strong, then go back to where you had purchased the glasses and have them verify that they were made correctly.
