Is it possible for astigmatism to return to normal?

In adolescence, it can be corrected by wearing glasses or contact lenses, and in adulthood, if it meets the indications for surgery, it can be corrected by surgery, no matter what kind of correction method is used, you must pay attention to taking care of your eyes.If you are tired of using your eyes for a long time, lying on the bed for a long time to read a book and look at your mobile phone, the astigmatism will increase very quickly, so you must pay great attention to eye health. All we have to do is to correct astigmatism, avoid the occurrence of high astigmatism amblyopia, and avoid a sharp increase in astigmatism, which is the purpose of our treatment. After astigmatism, it is often necessary to complete the examination of corneal curvature and corneal topography to rule out the possibility of keratoconus.

Femtosecond can treat astigmatism

Astigmatism is a common ophthalmic disease, which is a type of refractive error, usually due to congenital developmental abnormalities, long-term squinting and other bad eye habits, or eye trauma and ocular surface infection after leaving scars on the cornea. It will cause a difference in the refractive power of the cornea in the vertical and horizontal directions, so that the light rays cannot form a perfect focus on the retina after being refracted by the cornea, but form a focal line, which will cause vision loss. Refractive defects in the cornea can be repaired with a semi-femtosecond laser, resulting in improved vision. Femtosecond laser can treat astigmatism and is one of the commonly used surgical methods for treating astigmatism.

How is astigmatism caused in babies?

Astigmatism is a common refractive error. To put it simply, the parallel rays of light from the outside world cannot form a focus on the retina after being refracted by the eyeball, but form a blurred focal line, and this refractive state is called astigmatism. Astigmatism in children can have several causes: First, it may be congenital. Some babies have a certain amount of astigmatism after birth, which is called physiological astigmatism.This type of astigmatism generally does not affect vision and does not cause amblyopia. Of course, there are also some children with high astigmatism, which will affect their eyesight and even cause amblyopia, so they need to be treated. Second, astigmatism in children may be caused by other eye diseases in children. For example, keratoconus can cause obvious irregular astigmatism, and some children have corneal dermatoma, or corneal scarring caused by some inflammatory trauma, which are prone to astigmatism. Third, some children will also form a certain amount of astigmatism after surgery, such as after the excision of corneal dermatoma in children, after cataract surgery in children, etc.
