my ipad screen protector camera cutout doesnt line up

i got a screen protector for my ipad air and the camera cutout is on the long side, whereas my camera is on the short side. its making my camera quality very blurry. the size of the screen protector is perfect, so i’m wondering why the cutout is misplaced?

You may have ordered an incorrectly sized screen protector. Which model iPad Air do you have? The older models feature the camera on the shorter side, while the newest model features it on the longer top. Since the camera cutout is incorrectly placed, you can likely attribute the camera quality issue to it.
