The condition itself is not due to eye shape. Every place in earth has people with this condition wich it can not be detected by looking at the shape or the eye with the naked eye. An exam is needed to properly prescribe the lenses to read.

A nearsighted person's eye is typically longer than average or has a cornea that is too steep.

Nearsightedness can be corrected with glasses, contact lenses, or refractive surgery.

What to do for a astimatism?

I am assuming you mean astigmatism. This is a very common eye condition caused by an irregularly shaped cornea (called corneal astigmatism). But sometimes lenticular astigmatism results from an irregularly shaped lens, which is located behind the cornea.Either kind of astigmatism can usually be corrected with eyeglasses, contact lenses, or refractive surgery.It is separate from having either myopia (nearsightedness) or hyperopia (Farsightedness), meaning a person who has astigmatism may be nearsighted, farsighted or neither.The best thing is to go to an eye doctor and get examined. Once you have your diagnosis you can discuss your options with the doctor.
