If i have an astigmatism , could that be causing daily headaches? i do not wear glasses but i work on a p.c. all day and a lot of bright lighting.

Possible: If you need glasses and do not wear them, you can get a headache. However most headaches are not caused by ocular issues. I suggest getting a complete eye exam and getting glasses. This will make you see better and perhaps make your headaches go away.
