Did I pick the wrong type of glasses frame?

So I've had my current/old glasses for about 6 years, and at my most recent eye test (3 weeks ago) I was told I needed a stronger prescription lenses. Which is fine. I decided to choose some completely different glasses frames this time which are quite big rounded glasses whereas my old ones are narrow rimmed.

Once I got my new ones, I was happy thinking they will look great but noticed that they seemed to make me strain my eyes a little. I have given myself time to get used to them but I'm not sure I feel comfortable with them because I can see the sides of the glasses and they seem so sharp in focus!
I almost feel like I'm being fussy but I was wondering if the type of frame in the glasses could be making me feel like I can't relax in them because it's making me not feel right especially outside.
I bought my glasses from specsavers, would they change the frames if I said I wasn t able to relax and focus with the ones I chose?

Can you refuse astigmatism contact lenses?

My annual doctor s visit is coming up. My eye doctor had noted a little bit of astigmatism when he was checking my eyes. However, he did not put it on my prescription. I was just wondering, if he tells me that I have astigmatism, can I tell him I don't want astigmatism lenses on my prescription? Should he honor my resquest or no? I understand that what your eye doctor recommends is always the best way to go, but astigmatism contact lenses are just not something I'm interested in.
