| Astigmatism is a vision condition that occurs when the front surface of the eye, the cornea, is slightly misshapen. This prevents the image of an object from focussing accurately on the retina. As a result, vision remains blurred at all distances. Astigmatism may accompany near sightedness or farsightedness. |

People with severe astigmatism will usually have blurred or distorted vision. While those with mild astigmatism will experience headache, eyestrain, fatigue or blurred vision at certain distances. |
