A member asked:
I have shooting pain in eyes and blurred vision from an astigmatism. what can i do to stop it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See Eye MD: Astigmatism can certainly cause the blurred vision, but it can be corrected with glasses or contact lenses in nearly every case. It would not be associated with shooting pains, and another cause for that symptom should be investigated.
