A member asked:
I was wondering is astigmatism curable with laser treatment?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Often yes: Depending on the amount of astigmatism, and a few technical issues about the location and type of astigmatism you may have, custom laser vision correction surgery is very effective at treating astigmatism. Go and get a consult if you are serious
