A member asked:
What to do if i have an astigmatism in my right eye. can that cause headaches on the right side of my head?
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.
