Astigmatism is not a disease! It is the anatomical shape of your cornea and/or lens. Astigmatism is an irregular curvature to the cornea or the lens in our eye causing light rays to scatter and preventing them from meeting at a common point in the back of the eye. This often results in blurry, distorted vision at all focal points
