Astigmatism is the most common visual problem that people have. It can be caused by an irregularly shaped cornea or an irregularly shaped lens. The lens is located behind the cornea. One is called corneal astigmatism; the other is called lenticular astigmatism. Either one of these conditions can usually be corrected with contact lenses or glasses. Eye exercises can also correct astigmatism in certain candidates.
Nearsighted or farsighted people can have astigmatism and not even know it. Infrequent headaches or slightly blurred vision are the only warning signs and they may be ignored. More frequent and severe headaches or an increase in the blurry vision or eyestrain may be symptoms of advanced astigmatism.
Astigmatism in children can go undiagnosed because children don’t complain about it. They’ve not had anything to compare it to so they don’t know any different. Once they have an eye exam and it is diagnosed, they can correct astigmatism with eye strengthening exercises. After that, they may do better in school and sports.
If the child has not had an eye exam, you may notice that they squint when looking at something at a distance, or they cock their head to the side and only use one eye.
Astigmatism is usually not hereditary. Even if one or more members of the same family may have it, it’s not inherited. It occurs when the cornea is oblong rather than round. It causes light to focus on two points in your eye, rather than one. It can also be caused from an injury that cause scar tissue on the cornea…
