Have you been told you have astigmatism?

Are constant headaches and eyestrain impacting your life?

Astigmatism is a common eye condition characterized by an irregular curvature of the cornea that causes blurry, fuzzy, or distorted vision.

While astigmatism can certainly be a nuisance, there is no reason to suffer from it. It can be easily corrected with eyeglasses, contact lenses, or laser eye surgery.

For astigmatism treatment, contact Ducklo EyeCare in Midtown today!

How We Can Help

normal eye and eye with astigmatism

  • Come in for an eye exam and we’ll determine what type of lens correction will offer you the clearest vision possible.
  • We’ll discuss all your treatment options so you can feel confident that you’ve chosen the best option for your visual needs and lifestyle.
  • During your follow-up visit, we’ll make sure that you’re comfortable with your new eyewear and we'll check that your new lenses are providing you with crisp, clear vision.

4 Ways to Treat Astigmatism

  • Prescription eyeglasses

    Mild to moderate levels of astigmatism can often be corrected with eyeglasses that contain a unique optical power (cylinder) to combat blurry vision caused by astigmatism.

  • Toric contact lenses

    Toric contact lenses are customized to your corneal shape and contain varying corrective powers throughout the lens. These soft contact lenses provide clear, sharp vision for people with mild to moderate astigmatism.

  • Scleral contact lenses

    Scleral contact lenses are ideal for moderate to severe astigmatism. These specialized rigid lenses are designed to arch over your irregular shaped cornea and rest on your sclera (the white part of your eye), to deliver clear vision.

  • Laser eye surgery

    If you’re looking to free yourself from eyeglasses and contact lenses, laser eye surgery offers permanent astigmatism correction. Candidacy for laser eye surgery depends on your age, and the type and severity of your astigmatism.

No matter your level of astigmatism, Ducklo EyeCare in Midtown has the perfect solution for your needs.

All of the staff treated me very nice, they all went above and beyond to make sure all my needs and ... wants were met. They helped solved a insurance issue for me in a timely manner and got me on the schedule within just a few days after even though this facility is booked up pretty much for months. I greatly appreciate that. Also, shout out the the woman who helped me pick out and fit me for glasses. She went and picked out what she thought I would like, I tried them all on and and she nailed it I had a hard time deciding which to pick. But I finally made my decision and she got me priced and the order ready for me. All in all this has been the best eye exam experience I've ever had and I will definitely be coming back here from now on.

Great staff, both medical and administrative. Wait times are sometimes a little long, but my eye exa... ms are always thorough. Been going here for many years.

I've been seeing Dr. Ducklo since the 1980s, but I had an urgent concern and had to see Dr. Blair So... lomon, which turned out to be just as satifactory. Everyone was friendly, reassuring, and Dr. Solomon clearly explained what was happening while making sure I knew PVD is something that happens to virtually everyone as they age.

After not being able to see without double vision due to keratoconus for 40 years, I am elated and b... eside myself. I was introduced to Scalaral lenses. I cried and laughed and freaked out a little when Two images merged into one. Thank you Ducklo for changing my life

Astigmatism Diagnosis Treatment FAQs

What does astigmatism do to your eyes?

Astigmatism occurs when either the cornea or the lens inside the eye has mismatched curves, causing the eye surface to be egg-shaped rather than round.

While astigmatism causes blurry vision at all distances, it can also cause:

  • Wavy or distorted vision
  • Eye strain
  • Headaches
  • Squinting
  • Poor night vision
How do you fix astigmatism?

If you have astigmatism, corrective lenses (contacts or glasses) specifically designed for astigmatic eyes are an effective way to correct your blurry vision. They contain your optical prescription along with a specific cylinder lens power to target astigmatism and provide you with crystal clear vision. Laser surgery is another effective option to correct astigmatism.

Why has my astigmatism worsened?

About 20% of babies are born with astigmatism. In most cases, it disappears by around age 5. In others, astigmatism can become permanent and even worsen over time, generally stabilizing once the eyes reach their adult size (at around age 20).
