Quit nicotine, eye vision feels completely different

I quit dip about a month ago and I noticed around the time I had my first anxiety attack that my vision has felt completely different than normal. I know from doing dip for over 5 years that tobacco does calm my mind and I never had a problem with the way I see the world around me. Its hard to describe the way my eyes constantly feel, almost zoomed and I noticed I'm constantly staring whatever I'm looking at. If I look at the computer I feel like my eyes are focusing super hard on the screen. Or if I look at anything around me it just feels like my eyes and head are zoning out and staring at whatever I'm looking at. Its an incredibility scarying feeling which is causing me to have anxiety for the first time in my life. Since ive been off dip the world has felt different, either cause my mind or eyes, I cant tell which one. I wouldn't say I'm depersonalized, but I just feel like I'm on autopilot, that everything around me is one big dream even though I know its not. If anyone can relate to this or has any answers or fixes to this please help. Its really scaring me and even when I take my hydroxyzine it doesn't help the way my mind or eyes are looking at the world around me.

(wouldn't say vision is blurred more than normal, eyes or mind feel zoomed out more than normal, my vision feels like my eyes are leaning back or something its weird. I cant shake it no matter what I do, even with my glasses on my head and eyes remain the same.)
