Could this be asigmatism??


Question: well i have a vision problem i currently wear glasses but i have noticed my vision is geting terrible.Now i have to push my eye to actually see more clearer because i cant see very clear i really need to know if this could mean asigmatism?
Answers: It may accompany nearsightedness or farsightedness. Usually it is caused by an irregularly shaped cornea (called corneal astigmatism). But sometimes it is the result of an irregularly shaped lens, which is located behind the cornea; this is called lenticular astigmatism. Either kind of astigmatism can usually be corrected with eyeglasses, contact lenses or refractive surgery.
I have astigmatisms in both eyes. It happened quickly for me. U should go to the eye doctor as they are really the only ones who can diagnose it.
