Astigmatism 11/2/2020 1
Definition Astigmatism is defined as that dioptric condition of the eye in which a “point” focus is not formed on the retina 11/2/2020 2
Aetiology l Usually the cornea; rarely lens, IOL, etc. l Error in curvature in cornea or lens l Error in centering of lens or IOL l Error in refractive index of lens 11/2/2020 3
Physiological Astigmatism l Vertical corneal meridian is more curved than the horizontal l Seen in children and young adults l Gradually decreases with age l Constant pressure of the upper lid over the globe l In old age-Inverse astigmatism. Horizontal meridian is more curved than the vertical 11/2/2020 4

Symptoms l Diminution of vision l Distortion of images l Asthenopia due to accommodative effort l Headache or brow ache 11/2/2020 17
Optical treatment l Spectacle – Full correction usually – Under-correction if intolerable symptoms l Contact lenses – In small errors- spherical equivalent – In large errors- toric / rigid contact lens 11/2/2020 18
Surgical treatment l Astigmatic keratectomy l Laser refractive surgery 11/2/2020 19
Irregular astigmatism l Treatment is unsatisfactory l Keratoplasty may be required in keratoconus 11/2/2020 20
