Could my impacted wisdom teeth be causing my astigmatisms?!
Question: Could my impacted wisdom teeth be causing my astigmatisms!?
My upper wisdom teeth are really impacted!. I wake up every morning with a very tender jaw and feel a lot of pressure in both my ears from them not being able to drain correctly from the wisdom teeth pushing on the drainage tube!. I have also had a chronic sinus infection from this as well!. Anyway, I didn't develop astigmatisms until after my wisdom teeth started coming in and my theory is that all the built up pressure is the culprit of my eye problem as well!.
Is this possible !?!?!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

Well the 3rd and 5th nerves (oculo-motor and trigeminal) which control the visual apparatus and teeth in the human body are certainly in juxtaposition!.
Infection from the trigeminal could of course affect your vision but "astigmatism" is an actual mal-curvature of the cornea and I seldom saw it occur in practice!.
However, when you resolve your wisdom teeth problem and your jaw returns to good health, it would be wise to have your corneas checked with a Keratometer!. This will tell you if you actually have astigmatism!. Unfortunately it will NOT go away and will have to be corrected either with lenses or lasic!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
