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.

Can a child have an astigmatism and be near sighted?
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.
