#health Astigmatism is a type of refractive error of the eye. Refractive errors cause blurred vision. They are the most common reason why a person consults with an ophthalmologist.
Causes
People are able to see because the front of the eye (cornea) can bend (refract) light and focus it on the retina. This is the inner back of the eye.
If the rays of light are not clearly focused on the retina, the images you see may be blurred.
With astigmatism, the cornea is abnormally curved. This curve causes vision to be out of focus.
The exact cause of astigmatism is unknown. It is normally present from birth. Astigmatism often occurs along with nearsightedness or farsightedness. If astigmatism worsens, it may be a sign of keratoconus.
Astigmatism is very common. Sometimes, it happens after certain types of eye surgery, such as cataract surgery.
