Yes, there is a gap between online chess and OTB chess. The viewing is different, the conesthesis is different (your fingers feel different things). You see your opponent in front of you. It is in fact different. So maybe it helps also if you play some games (i.e. old, important games) with a real chess board at home. Or you set some chess problems on such a real board and try to figure out what to do.
