Does astigmatism sometimes cause a headache?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Could: If you have uncorrected astigmatism, that can cause eye strain, which can cause headaches that typically feel like they come from the eye or the brow. If you're wearing accurate correction, however, it should not cause headaches.
