Astigmatism Treatment in Friendswood

Say Goodbye to Blurred & Distorted Vision

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 Parkwood Vision Center in Friendswood today!

How We Can Help

  • 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, Parkwood Vision Center in Friendswood has the perfect solution for your needs.

I have a bad experience with another place not having my contacts I ordered for my wedding despite g... etting them 3 months in advance. I last minute made an appointment here with Parkwood Vision Center as a new patient and not only did they save the day by getting my contacts they went above and beyond to ensure I had everything I needed for my actual wedding day since this was my first time getting contacts(eyedrops, solution, multiple dailys). The staff was patient and kind while helping me learn to put them in despite it being closer to closing time on a Saturday. I can’t thank them enough!!! I will now get to see future husband walking down the aisle!

Debbie was amazing at bringing the ease of a new visit to absolutely nothing - she is particularly c... aring and it shows. Dr. Rader and Dr. Kvinta are both very attentive and having themselves gone through many issues regarding vision care, are extremely knowledgeable and I really liked how well they were with the scientific advances and breakthroughs with attention to how it would affect the wallet and the long-term health - so it lived upto its reputation that made me go to the center in the first place. Kudos and I enjoy my contacts and frames more now.
