Astigmatism and hyperopia are possible. A cycloplegic (dilated) evaluation may be performed. I also wonder about your near point symptoms. A binocular vision disorder could be creating near symptoms of fatigue as well. A nearpoint phoria and duction may reveal needs for more testing.

I too have this feeling of a pulling sensation in my left eye when I wear my glasses for correction a slight astigmatism. I have glasses to correct -.75 astigmatism in my left eye. Whenever I wear them there is a weird sensation that I feel in the eye perhaps you could call it "pulling". All I know is that it's very uncomfortable. I should note that I do see clearer with the glasses on. I do have lots of eye fatigue while working at the computer as well so I'm not sure if that's related or not. My question is why wouldn't my eye tolerate astigmatism correction in the lens and if it doesn't, over a period of time will my eye adjust to it?
