Why 40% of People’s Eyes Aren’t Perfectly Round—and What That Means!

Most people's eyes aren't a perfect sphere. Instead, the corneas or lenses are slightly oval—like a football—which causes a condition called astigmatism. Around 40–60% of adults have some degree of it (verywellhealth.com, Wikipedia)

🔍 **In this video, you’ll discover:**

1. What astigmatism is: uneven curvature causing blurry or distorted vision at all distances (0search14)

2. Why about 1 in 3 adults actually have it—and why near-zero astigmatism is rare (0search6)

3. How the shape of your eye—like a rugby ball vs soccer ball—scatters light, causing double focal points and eyestrain (0search0)

4. Common symptoms: blurred or stretched vision, headaches, squinting, glare or halos at night, eye fatigue (0news13)

5. Treatment options: prescription glasses or toric contacts to correct curvature; refractive surgery like LASIK in more severe cases (0search14)

👁️‍🗨️ Even infants may have it at birth, and it often worsens slightly with age—but it's easily manageable with the right eye care. Don’t let blurry vision hold you back.
