Laser vision correction will help correct astigmatism. Check with your specialist
Nearly all the refractive surgery options, including LASIK, PRK, SMILE, and ICL can be used to treat astigmatism. But, your corneal anatomy, total refractive error, age, and other factors need to be considered before a final recommendation can be made. I'd recommend getting a thorough evaluation and ask your surgeon what they think is best for you. I've made some videos about laser refractive surgery, which may be of help:

You would need to see a refractive surgery doctor to see which procedure is best for you. Lasik or PRK.
