Is it possible to reduce astigmatism in children

Astigmatism is generally more difficult to reduce or restore in children. Astigmatism can be categorized into regular astigmatism and irregular astigmatism, which can be corrected by physical correction or surgery to improve vision. Parallel light rays enter the eye, due to the different refractive power of the eye in different meridian, can not be gathered in one point (focus), and can not form a clear image of the object, this condition is called astigmatism. This condition is called astigmatism. Astigmatism can cause blurred vision, and children can wear glasses to correct it and improve their vision. If the child does not want to wear glasses when he/she reaches adulthood, he/she can be treated with surgical procedures, such as keratoconus surgery or astigmatism-correcting IOL implantation. It is recommended that children with astigmatism consult a hospital in time to assess their condition and receive standardized treatment under the guidance of a doctor.
