What are the symptoms of astigmatism?

If you have astigmatism, you may have:

• Headaches.
• Fatigue.
• Eye strain.
• Blurred vision (at all distances).
• Squinting to see clearly.

These symptoms are also symptoms of several other conditions. An eye specialist can help diagnose the problem.

It can be tricky to diagnose astigmatism in children. It often goes undetected, because children may not complain about blurred vision. If your child mentions ongoing headaches or eye troubles, talk to your child’s healthcare provider.
