Answers:
Simply put astigmatism means that the shape of you eyes is more like an egg or rugby ball rather than being completely spherical!. this means that you have a higher precription in one direction in your eye compared to the other direction!. This is incorporated into your glasses prescription to correct this!. Astigmatism makes things look distorted in one direction if it is not corrected!. Some people do not notice this distortion if it is only a small amount of astigmatism!. It is very common, most people have some degree of astigmatism in their prescription, but for most its a very small amount!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
