How would you get astigmatism and nearsided????


Question: juss curious lol
Answers: An astimatism is a defect of the eye, where vision is blurred by an irregularly shaped cornea. The cornea, instead of being shaped like a sphere, is ellipsoidal (like an egg) and reduces the cornea's ability to focus light. It may be due to genetics, or caused by a problem such as deformation of the eyeball due to a chalazion (cyst).

Myopia (nearsightedness) is most likely caused by a combination of genetic and environmental causes.
