Astigmatism can be corrected with eyeglasses, sometimes contact lenses, and possibly surgery. Best Regards, Kenmore Optical 1018 Beacon Street Suite 100 Brookline, MA 02446 www.kenmoreoptical.com (617) 505-6419
Of course, astigmatism may be "fixed" with the same options as the treatments for myopia and hyperopia: Spectacles, Contact Lenses or many types for Refractive Surgery. Sincerely, *Jeffrey L. Weaver* OD, MBA, MS, FAAO, FACHE, CAE
Yes, with laser or an implant
Astigmatism is treated with glasses, contact lenses or refractive surgery.
