Myopia vs Astigmatism: Understanding Blurred Vision Causes •Myopia and Astigmatism are common refractive errors that cause blurred vision, but they differ in how the eye focuses light. •Myopia occurs when light focuses in front of the retina, making distant objects appear blurry while near vision remains clear. •Astigmatism, on the other hand, is caused by an irregularly shaped cornea or lens, leading to distorted or blurred vision at all distances. •People with myopia often experience difficulty seeing far objects and may squint, while those with astigmatism may notice stretched or shadowed images, eye strain, and headaches. •Both conditions can occur together and affect daily activities if not corrected.• Treatment options include prescription glasses, contact lenses (especially toric lenses for astigmatism), or refractive procedures like LASIK.• At Paavai Eye & Skin Care Hospital, Salem, we provide accurate eye examinations and personalized solutions to improve visual clarity and comfort. Regular eye check-ups are essential for maintaining healthy vision.#Myopia #Astigmatism #EyeCare #HealthyEyes 👁️
