If you have astigmatism, you might develop blurred vision. This blurring of vision occurs at all distances, but might vary depending on the directions in the image.
For example, horizontal lines may appear clearer but vertical lines seem out of focus.
2. Eye Strain and Headaches
It may be hard to associate eye strain and headaches with astigmatism right away. After all, headaches are common and eyestrain may occur whenever you overuse your eyes.
Still, if you experience them regularly along with blurry vision, it might be time to visit the ophthalmologist.
3. Squinting To See Things Clearly
One of the signs of astigmatism is squinting to see things clearly. As you may not be aware that you’re doing it, consider being more mindful of the way you look at things.
Important: Having these signs and symptoms doesn’t automatically mean you have astigmatism. You should visit an ophthalmologist for a proper diagnosis.
