Contact Lenses for Astigmatism

Have you been diagnosed with astigmatism and think that you can’t wear contact lenses? It is estimated that 75% of people wearing eye correction have some amount of astigmatism correction.  Astigmatism is a refractive condition like myopia or nearsightedness and hyperopia or farsightedness. All of these common eye conditions cause the same thing-blur. Depending on how much astigmatism you have, you may not need to actually correct it in your contact lens prescription. If you do have moderate amounts of astigmatism, there are contacts for astigmatism that correct this problem and help you see clearly. With today's technology we can fit, prescribe and fabricate practically any astigmatic contact lens prescription.
