• Can LASIK correct astigmatism?

  • Sources:

    Yes, LASIK surgery can correct astigmatism. During the procedure, the cornea is reshaped to correct the way light enters the eye. For astigmatism, this means altering the corneal shape from being more football-like to more spherical (basketball-like), allowing for better focus and correction of vision anomalies caused by astigmatism 1.
