A member asked:
I purchased a glasses and after check up optometrist told me only my left eye increased for astigmatism but an internet test say both, which to trust?

Depends: The internet tests are only approximate. The optometrist will supply a better answer and the best will come from an ophthalmologist. If the increase is small, you probably don't have to get new eyeglasses.
