They told me I have an astigmatism, just wondering if its bad, cause i dont really feel its bad besides, my headaches and driving at night, and computer screens.

its called (mixed hyper metropic myopic astigmatism) u have a little strong eye but your cornea is slightly irregualr at one point shifting images in front of the retina the exact location is 90 degrees from the axis which u didnt mention ,its a mild prescription u get some blurring mostly on sharp images and its worse at night or watching tv ,at the beginning of the day your accomodation can compensate but as u get more into the day u feel blurry sometimes and headaches from to much accomodation,the glasses will put u in total ease ,

My doctor described it to me as a slight curve to the lens of the eye. My vision is not that bad, but I do have headaches and see very blury without glasses. The best corection comes from contact lenses, but I have not decided to put anything in my eyes yet.
