[@verakumar9697]

I really appreciate your explanation. As you said that cylindrical power can be corrected with lasik..mine is 0.25 and axis is 130, is it be corrected??

[@indiavideodotorg]

You can contact him via Mobile: [phone] or mail him [e-mail]

[@jcvideo1001]

one of the main causes of astigmatism is prolonged exposure of the eyes to bright objects, such as a reflective desk or a bright desk light

[@fatimah338]

jc video hi can it be corrected as an optimistrist told me that in my child it can be corrected in later ages

[@ap5159]

Thanks for that...... 😃

[@theendison5423]

astigmatism caused me headache and i have been suffering from headache from 2 year with my new corrected glasses.My advice to any person suffering from astigmatism is to ask ur optometrist to lower ur cylindrical power and wear ur glasses all time after 1 or 2 year after u will be adabted to headache. now my headache is less but its still their.

Cud not understand why sleeping sideways was a problem, I am a medical student... Had the same doubt could not find any viable answer on the internet or the books... Finally i have come up with my theory... That sleeping sideways we apply mechanical pressure on the eyeball and astigmatism being a condition where eyeball changes shape.... Only This explanation makes sense... Hope that helps

[@SS-qv4db]

Iidentyasyourb0ss we need to change this habit!

[@annavk7672]

My optometrist recently corrected my glasses to fix astigmatism. With my old glasses (no astigmatism) I have no headaches and see everything alright. But with my new glasses (with astigmatism correction) everything looks strange and I get headaches. Should I ask him to change back my glasses?

[@annavk7672]

goat I just had him change my glasses back to normal without astigmatism correction. My astigmatism isn't really noticeable, so I get on just fine. Have your optometrist do the same if you're alright without the correction, I guess.

Today my son was diagnosed with 2.5cylindrical eyesight vision. He is 4yr4 months. The Senior ophthalmologist could not tell specifically the cause. But she said it cant be due to excessive screen time. You mentioned it could be either due to genetic or watching tv tilted. My son watched from age 1 or so tab, mobile etc. He would watch nearly 6 hours or so every day. Some days 7 hours in a stretch. Can you please throw some light on it.

[@The_Storyteller7]

Great sir, explained very well, but sir is there any way to cure it naturally, like exercise etc
