Astigmatism – Correct Blurred Vision With Online Contacts
The astigmatism condition occurs when the cornea of the eye becomes misshaped. This misshapen cornea results in blurred vision due to the light not being able to properly hit the retina. Astigmatism is a very common eye condition that affects millions of people. Those who have the condition can have mild to extreme eye sight problems. The optician will conduct a series of tests to determine if a person has astigmatism and then prescribes the appropriate corrective sight device. At one time eyeglasses were the eye wear device prescribed, but now, thanks to innovations in corrective sight technology, there are special contacts that will correct the blurred vision caused by astigmatism.
