New to contacts

Today is my first day wearing contact lenses, and honestly, it’s a relief not having to deal with glasses anymore. That said, I do have a couple of questions.

Is it normal to go from a −3.75 cylinder in glasses to a −2.75 cylinder in contacts? I’m wearing Biofinity XR toric lenses, and I wasn’t sure if that kind of change is typical.

Also, how long does it usually take to fully adjust to contacts? I’ve noticed that I’m refocusing quite a bit, almost like my eyes are still trying to figure things out.
