👁️ What is Astigmatism?
You might have heard this word at your eye exam, but what does it actually mean?
Astigmatism is a common vision condition where your cornea (the clear front surface of your eye) has an irregular shape. Instead of being perfectly round like a basketball, it's shaped more like a football.
This uneven curvature causes light to focus on multiple points in your eye instead of one, leading to blurred or distorted vision at all distances.

Common signs:
Blurry or fuzzy vision
Eye strain or discomfort
Headaches, especially after reading
Difficulty seeing at night
Squinting to see clearly

The good news? Astigmatism is easily corrected with glasses, contact lenses, or refractive surgery. Most people have at least a small amount of astigmatism—it's completely normal!

Do you struggle to see things up close but everything far away looks clear?
You might have hypermetropia (farsightedness)!

Hypermetropia occurs when your eyes focus images behind the retina, making near objects blurry. Common symptoms include:

Difficulty reading small text

Eye strain or headaches

Squinting to see clearly

The good news? Glasses, contact lenses, or corrective surgery can help you see comfortably again!

What is Myopia (Nearsightedness)?

Myopia is a common vision condition where you can see objects up close clearly, but distant objects appear blurry — like road signs, TV screens, or classroom boards.

👁️ Symptoms may include:
✔️ Squinting to see far away
✔️ Headaches or eye strain
✔️ Sitting closer to screens or books
✔️ Difficulty driving at night

The good news? Myopia can be easily corrected with glasses, contact lenses, or advanced treatment options.
