What Is Astigmatism?
1. Symptoms of Astigmatism
Astigmatism is usually asymptomatic. This means that most people will not experience any kind of symptoms. Even if some symptoms appear, they differ from one person to another. The most common symptom of astigmatism is blurry vision. The main complaint of people with astigmatism is having distorted vision that is not distance related.
Other symptoms include difficulty of seeing at night, eye strain, squinting, irritation of the eye, and headaches. If you feel that your vision is blurry all the time, it is time to visit an ophthalmologist to get your eyes checked. Note that some of these symptoms may also result from other health conditions.
