Astigmatism

Astigmatism can cause blurred or distorted vision, headaches, and eye strain if left untreated. Book an eye exam today and take the first step toward sharper vision.

What is Astigmatism?

Astigmatism is a common refractive error caused by an irregularly shaped cornea or lens. Instead of being perfectly round, the eye curves more like a football, which makes light focus unevenly on the retina. This can result in blurry or distorted vision at any distance.

HATE DRIVING AT NIGHT?

In an eye with a refractive error, the mismatched curves in the eye prevent the light rays from bending properly. The result is a blurry image. There are two different types of astigmatism: corneal astigmatism, where the mismatched curves occur in the cornea, and lenticular astigmatism where the curves in the lens are mismatched. Both cause blurry vision but can occur more horizontally, vertically or diagonally.

FAQs

Can astigmatism worsen over time?

Astigmatism may change gradually, especially in childhood or after eye surgery, but it can be effectively managed with corrective lenses or other treatments.

Are toric contact lenses comfortable?

Yes. Modern toric lenses are designed for stability and comfort, providing clear vision throughout the day.

Can astigmatism be corrected permanently?

Certain refractive surgeries can correct astigmatism permanently, but not everyone is a candidate. Our optometrists can assess your suitability.

How often should I have my eyes checked if I have astigmatism?

Typically every 1–2 years for adults, and more frequently for children or if your vision changes.

Does astigmatism cause headaches?

Yes. Blurry or distorted vision often leads to eye strain, which can cause headaches, especially after reading or screen use.
