Health Tip: Managing Astigmatism
By LadyLively on October 27, 2015

Astigmatism occurs when the eye’s cornea becomes abnormally shaped, causing blurry vision.
The American Optometric Association suggests these ways to manage the condition:
- Wearing eyeglasses.
- Wearing contact lenses.
- Undergoing orthokeratology, in which gas-permeable contact lenses are fitted to the eye, to reshape it over time.
- Reshaping the cornea surgically.
