Refraction Prescription

With my new spectacles one of my eyes is not clear when seen individually. With my old spects both eyes are clear individually. New power prescription is -5 and -6. Old power prescription is -5.5 and -6.5. I am clear with -6 but -5 is not clear. I suspect -5.5 would be ok. The doctor says that ur old axis 120 has been changed to 180 and it will be ok if you wear it continuously for 3 days. Is the doctor right. Pls explain.

Right eye pains

Past two days I have been experiencing pain in the right eye which began all of a sudden. The moment I look up or when the light falls on the eye, it starts watering and I feel a little better when I close the right eye for a few seconds. I am a phone addict and my job demands me to stare the computer all the time. Could it just be because of that or any other issue?

Eye glass Precription

My Uncle has an eye glass prescription which contains for one of the yes as follows: +0.75 in spherical power column +0.5 in cylindrical power column +2.5 in ADD power column. My question is generally sph and cyl columns contain minus values for nearsightedness correction. Here, we see plus value which means farsightedness (reading). If so, why not mention it in ADD power itself which is specifically for farsightedness (reading)? The optometrist said +0.75 and +0.5 powers are for distant seeing. Got confused. Pl clarify. thanks

Hypermetropia

How can a person suffer from nearsightedness and been prescribed +power lenses for hyperopia? Aunt has been given +0.25 sph power in both eyes which is a prescription for hyperopia (long sightedness). But she says she is slightly shortsighted(not able to see distance objects) and she is clear with nearer objects? !! Can hyperopia patients experience nearsightedness instead of longsightedness? If so how come plus power works, she needs a minus power right?
