It is very common for people with myopia (nearsightedness) to have some correction for astigmatism in their prescription also.
Astigmatism: What is it? Astigmatism is the unequal tension in one or more of the extra-ocular muscles of the eye that creates a temporary ‘warp’ or warble on the cornea (very front and clear part of the eye) which causes light rays to fall in multiple focal areas on the retina. Objects appear warped, haloed or are seen as double. Astigmatism fluctuates or changes quite often and is one of the first symptoms of visual distortion that vision coaching addresses. With a vision improvement program and a reduced prescription, astigmatism is the very first thing we request that you Optometrist remove or reduce in your step-down or transition lenses, so that your eye muscles have some room to release the physical tension and the emotional or energetic patterns can be explored and released.
