Astigmatism is one of the 3-4 refractive errors that are usually correctable with glasses, contact lenses and / or refractive surgical procedures. The others are myopia or nearsighted, hyperopia or
farsighted. Presbyopia is the over 39 syndrome that causes older people to need glasses to see close or to read. Astigmatism will NOT make you go blind and neither will any of the others listed above.

Astigmatism can be corrected with spectacles or contact lenses.
