Astigmatism

Normally, the cornea is spherical like a basketball. When light hits the cornea, it will focus on a single point, resulting in clear vision.

With an astigmatism, the eye is shaped more like a football. Light focuses on more than one point in the eye, causing blurred vision. Astigmatism often occurs in conjunction with farsightedness (hyperopia), and nearsightedness (myopia).

Symptoms of astigmatism may include:

• Headaches
• Fatigue
• Eye strain
• Blurred vision
• Vision distortion
• Eye discomfort or irritation
