What Is Astigmatism?

Astigmatism is a common vision issue that occurs when your cornea or lens isn't curved evenly. This affects how light passes through it and into your eye, which can cause various debilitating symptoms. Some of these symptoms include:

    • Blurry vision for near and far sightedness
    • Headaches
    • Eyestrain
    • Difficulty seeing at night or in low light settings
    • Squinting to see clearly

Treatment Options for Astigmatism

At Family EyeCare at Westchase, we offer several treatments for astigmatism including:

    • Eyeglasses - eyeglass lenses can be specially designed with the appropriate curvature to correct vision problems. For children, a special lens design may be needed to accommodate their growing eyes.
    • Contact Lenses - contact lenses are specially designed to match the unique curvature of your eye and can help improve vision quickly.
    • Refractive Surgery - this type of surgery uses lasers or other devices to reshape your cornea and correct astigmatism. It is quick, painless, and most patients see results within just a few hours.

No matter what your case is, our optometry team at Family EyeCare in Westchase has the experience and knowledge to find the best treatment for you. We take pride in providing top-notch eye care services that can help restore your vision and improve your quality of life.
