Hurt?: Did your head hurt before getting the glasses? Were the glasses prescribed to help the headache? Need more information. Headache may be due to astigmatism or over correction. May be more serious though. Need more information.

Time: Give yourself about a week to get used to them. If your still having problems have the prescription checked for accuracy, or your eyes rechecked to make sure the prescription is right.
