Have you been told you have astigmatism?

Are constant headaches and eyestrain impacting your life?

Astigmatism is a common eye condition characterized by an irregular curvature of the cornea that causes blurry, fuzzy, or distorted vision.

While astigmatism can certainly be a nuisance, there is no reason to suffer from it. It can be easily corrected with eyeglasses, contact lenses, or laser eye surgery.

For astigmatism treatment, contact Anastasia Eye Associates in St. Augustine today!

Give Your Eyes the Care They Deserve

How We Can Help

normal eye and eye with astigmatism

  • Come in for an eye exam and we’ll determine what type of lens correction will offer you the clearest vision possible.
  • We’ll discuss all your treatment options so you can feel confident that you’ve chosen the best option for your visual needs and lifestyle.
  • During your follow-up visit, we’ll make sure that you’re comfortable with your new eyewear and we'll check that your new lenses are providing you with crisp, clear vision.

4 Ways to Treat Astigmatism

  • Prescription eyeglasses

    Mild to moderate levels of astigmatism can often be corrected with eyeglasses that contain a unique optical power (cylinder) to combat blurry vision caused by astigmatism.

  • Toric contact lenses

    Toric contact lenses are customized to your corneal shape and contain varying corrective powers throughout the lens. These soft contact lenses provide clear, sharp vision for people with mild to moderate astigmatism.

  • Scleral contact lenses

    Scleral contact lenses are ideal for moderate to severe astigmatism. These specialized rigid lenses are designed to arch over your irregular shaped cornea and rest on your sclera (the white part of your eye), to deliver clear vision.

  • Laser eye surgery

    If you’re looking to free yourself from eyeglasses and contact lenses, laser eye surgery offers permanent astigmatism correction. Candidacy for laser eye surgery depends on your age, and the type and severity of your astigmatism.

No matter your level of astigmatism, Anastasia Eye Associates in St. Augustine has the perfect solution for your needs.

Dr Green is a wonderfully kind person. When I had a problem on a Saturday, he opened his office for ... me. Found it was serious and made arrangements for eye surgery the upcoming Monday. Can’t get that from Costco!!!! His staff is a projection of him.

The frames of my glasses were damaged beyond repair. Matt was extremely helpful finding another fra... me that the lens' would fit in. Friendly, professional, prompt. I highly recommend.

I called here because I was on desperate need of a pair of glasses that I lost in the ocean. We were... leaving the next day so I needed them same day. I called at 1:15pm and had glasses by 3:20pm!!! The staff was so nice and helpful. Michelle helped me pick out a pair of frames that I loved. Matt helped me get them adjusted to my face. While I was there I witnessed how welcoming and kind they were to every person that walked in there. I was an online buyer and this place has made me realize that brick and mortar has a leg up on the online shops!

Dr Green, Matt and their staff are amazing. They provide such excellent care that after moving to th... e Gulf Coast, I make the 6 hour drive just to receive eye care from them. You will not be disappointed with them.

There are still genuinely good people in this world! I’m from pittsburgh, on my way to st Augustin... e I broke my eyeglasses, I went here to see Matt, he repaired them in less than 5 minutes, would not accept any payment, gave me the option to make a donation to the jar on the counter for a worthy cause! I actually felt bad that I could not pay for his service, I can’t describe how relieved I am knowing that I don’t have to drive back to pittsburgh without glasses. What a wonderful service they provide in a world that is full of disappointments, I highly recommend this business for all your eyeglass needs!

I inadvertently stepped on my wife's glasses while on vacation in St. Augustine. We went to Anastas... ia Eye Associates the next morning and the optician fixed them perfectly within 15 minutes. I, of course, offered to pay, but he told me to put money in a jar for a local charity instead. If I lived here, this is the business I would go to for my eye glass purchases and servicing.

Astigmatism Diagnosis Treatment FAQs

What does astigmatism do to your eyes?

Astigmatism occurs when either the cornea or the lens inside the eye has mismatched curves, causing the eye surface to be egg-shaped rather than round.

While astigmatism causes blurry vision at all distances, it can also cause:

  • Wavy or distorted vision
  • Eye strain
  • Headaches
  • Squinting
  • Poor night vision
How do you fix astigmatism?

If you have astigmatism, corrective lenses (contacts or glasses) specifically designed for astigmatic eyes are an effective way to correct your blurry vision. They contain your optical prescription along with a specific cylinder lens power to target astigmatism and provide you with crystal clear vision. Laser surgery is another effective option to correct astigmatism.

Why has my astigmatism worsened?

About 20% of babies are born with astigmatism. In most cases, it disappears by around age 5. In others, astigmatism can become permanent and even worsen over time, generally stabilizing once the eyes reach their adult size (at around age 20).
