It's more noticeable when looking at items close to me ( I was okay watching TV from across the room, but looking at things on the counter was awkward).

Anyways, thanks for your help. Unfortunately my OD is in Kansas City, and I'm in Omaha, so I'll probably just call on Monday and see what they think the issue is. Like I said, everything is clear and well defined, just small like it could be fixed by putting a magnifying glass lens over the right lens and things would be perfect...
It sounds like your eye doctor forgot to correct for you astigmatism in your right eye with the prescription. I have glasses for 15 years, contacts for 12 years. My senior year of college (2001) I got new glasses and never changed the prescription because my insurance only lets me do one or the other every year and I didn't wear my glasses much, so what did I care. About a year and a half ago, my then eye doctor in Michigan, pointed out that my glasses weren't correcting for my astigmatism. "Ah, so that's why I'm always getting those headaches at night when I wear my glasses," I thought. He put a little plate of glass in front of one eye and everything sharpened up.
