What exactly is this condition
I went to the eye doctor who said I went from completely fine to severe astigmatism in 12 months. It was just a bunch of jibberish he said, and now I'm just worried. Right now, I wear Acuvue Colours contacts. So, the doctor gave me 11 pairs of trial astigmatism lenses, none of them fit properly (itchy, pokey) and then he gave me a 12th pair to try on. These fit perfectly... and then he told me these were the lenses I'd been wearing. The problem is that my vision hasn't worsened within the past year, I've just developed astigmatism. Wearing thick astigmatism lenses is so horribly uncomfortable, I'd rather just stick to the lenses I have. The doctor showed me how I should see with astigmatism lenses, but I don't see a huge difference. So, I want to keep the lenses I have, even though the doctor is opposed to it.
Will this make the astigmatism worse?
Why do people suddenly get astigmatism?
Will it ever go away? =(
