no, one eye can have astigmatism and the other just have a spherical prescription. for example, OD(right eye) could be -1.00 -0.50 x 90-astigmatism part of the rx and OS(left eye) -1.25.
myopia,hyperopia,astigmatism
myopia is when you see blur far away(example: can't see school chalkboard), and astigmatism is when you see everything blurry.
it is possible for a person to have both myopia and hypermetropia(hyperopia).The defect can be corrected by using bifocal lens.

People with myopia (nearsightedness) or hyperopia (farsightedness) can also have astigmatism because these conditions relate to the overall shape of the eye and the curvature of the cornea or lens. Myopia and hyperopia occur when the eye is either too long or too short, affecting focal points. Astigmatism arises when the cornea or lens has an irregular shape, causing blurred vision at all distances. Since these issues can coexist, individuals may experience a combination of these refractive errors.
Laser in-situ keratomileusis (LASIK) is a non-reversible refractive procedure performed by ophthalmologists to correct myopia, hyperopia, or astigmatism.
When the eye is unable to focus light effectively, it can lead to conditions such as myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), and astigmatism. These conditions result in blurred vision and difficulty seeing objects clearly at certain distances.
iLasik (laser assisted in situ keratomileusis) is the most commonly performed laser vision correction procedure for patients suffering from nearsightedness (myopia), farsightedness (hyperopia) and astigmatism.
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.
Yes; astigmatism is a condition caused by an irregularity in the shape of either the cornea or lens and tends to cause blurriness. Myopia (nearsightedness) is caused by an elongated eye or a cornea with a sharper than average curvature, and allows things that are near to be seen clearly while things at a distance are blurry and unclear. Astigmatism can occur with hyperopia(farsightedness) as well, or it can occur by itself.
um....... NO!!! (sorrry about ur eyes though)
yeah i wear them and have them in both my eyes but your choices for color are more limited than if you didn't have astigmatism
