Astigmatism exists when the cornea of the eye is shaped more like a football than a basketball. Light is focused in multiple points on the retina, which causes distorted vision.
Treatment for this condition includes glasses and contact lenses, several types of laser treatments that can reduce or eliminate the condition altogether, and astigmatic keratotomy.
