COMMON CONDITIONS

Refractive Errors Explained - Astigmatism

Astigmatism is a condition where the cornea is shaped like a rugby ball (oval) rather than a soccer ball (round). This causes light rays to focus at different points in the eye causing difficulty with near and distance vision. This distorted vision can cause headache and eye strain.

How is it treated?
