*i went without glasses for over a decade and in that time my vision kept getting worse. i was having to squint and squeeze pretty badly and just couldn't see. i **_finally_** got a prescription in 2020 and a few weeks later got a pair of glasses.* *WOW. i couldn't believe people could see so clearly, naturally, with healthy eyesight. it really blew my mind to think that there are people who see so clear. i struggled pretty badly for the first couple of weeks. i was seeing **_too_** clear and it was making me dizzy and nauseous. i almost couldn't walk. for real.* *know what i have now? it's soooo funny. i have granny beads! eyeglass chain, so i can have my glasses nearby when i need them but the ability to take them off and not have to put them in a case or otherwise risk losing or damaging them. i'm an overgrown child who can't stop laughing at the fact that i'm an old lady now. granny beads are right up my ally, so amusing.* *i have these really bad, heavy, deep lines between my eyebrows from all those years of intense squinting and squeezing. permanent scarring, really.*

Glare is not astigmatism. If you have astigmatism you see two lights. If it’s a line then you see two parallel lights one above another. You see stars as lines no matter how hard you try you don’t see stars as a dot

I suffer from this but it isn’t as bad as people think it is. Your eyes don’t always see odd refractions of light it can also depend on how stressed ur eyes are, if I’m relaxed and things are going fine my eyes will see clear and normal but sadly lights on card like headlights always appear as weird glares for me so I’m interested in getting some glasses to correct it!

I was diagnosed with astigmatism at 15, I'm now 49. When I was diagnosed, the only option for contacts were hard contacts and those are horrible. Years later my Dr told me they have soft lenses I can use now, so I've tried them twice and just couldn't deal with the trouble of wearing them. You have to wear toric? Lenses which are weighted on the bottom because just like the glasses there are 4 areas of adjustments to your vision. The problem is I work construction and I'm not always standing upright. The lenses only work because the are weighted at the bottom and don't rotate. Well you'll soon find out if you decide to lay on the couch to watch TV, the contacts will rotate 90 degrees and you can't see anything lol. I've worn glasses for 33 years and everytime I go to the Dr, I have to get a stronger prescription. I kept some contacts for some days when if like to wear sunglasses, like going fishing or just out and about. But now I'm off the chart for available contact correction in my left eye. The strongest soft contact is no longer enough to correct my left eye vision. So hopefully one day I'll be able to get the surgery. Otherwise it's glasses till the end😅. Good luck on your journey with astigmatism if you are just finding out.

[@rileyesposito3043]

All I know that I didn’t have Astigamatism when I was born. And I didn’t have it when I got my first pair of Glasses.But I got Astigamatism after I wore Glasses for a while. I believe it is the Glasses you wear to cause the Astigamatism. So Astigamatism can be reversed. I got rid of the Astigamatism by wearing glasses without Astigamatism correction and wearing same power in both eyes glasses. Also I do more exercises.

[@jeffreysummers6843]

My astigmatism went away in the right eye after using progressively higher reading glasses (+1.0 -> +2.0) when working close up and progressively lower distance glasses (-1.5 -> -0.75) when driving or at least two hours a day. Look up Todd Becker myopia a modern yet reversible condition.

Hi, I'm 24 and my eye doctor just told me I have astigmatism (-0,5 at 10° left and -0,75 at 170° right), never discovered before, I worry a lot about it. is that a normal symptom seeing a slight vertical doubling of the text with one eye, and when it's dark, that doubling and another one horizontal? I read a lot about keratoconus and i am affraid of having it, but i'm sure i'm never rubbing my eyes

[@morissetteamon9021]

We actually have the same story/situation right now. I have also double vision and thought it's only regular astigmatism. But as i learn more about irregular astigmatism and kerotoconus, it seems to connect and match all my questions about my eye. I'm really hoping it's not kerotoconus and it's just regular.

Hello, I have astigmatism. For the people without astigmatism I will easily explain what we see when we look at light. Step 1: Take your phone Step 2: Open your camera app Step 3: Point the camera at a light source Step 4: Wipe the camera lens with your bare fingers The light now looks distorted on the camera with like ‘Stripes’ on the side. That’s what we see with Astigmatism. The strength of the distortion may differ according to your own eyes.

[@EyeSchoolwithDrD]

It depends. Usually astigmatism is there and doesn’t change a great deal from the time our visual system is matured. But some people (me, for example) will accept my 0.50 astigmatism at one refraction then not prefer it the next time. If you went from zero astigmatism to a large amount that’s more concerning than just say, 0.25 or 0.50 diopters.

I'm curious why most humans have such terrible vision. Why hasn't thousands of years of evolution not selected for better vision genes over the years? I had horrible vision as early as age 6. In primitive times, I'd never survive. Glasses can help bad vision genes continue, but in the grand scheme of things they haven't been around for very long.

Modern diet, lives that often focus on close up work a lot of the time, using distance correction up close.
