Astigmatism (optical systems)

Okay, imagine your eye is like a camera and your glasses are like the lens. Sometimes, the lens isn't perfect and it can make things look blurry or distorted. Astigmatism is when the lens of your eye is shaped more like a football than a round ball, so it can make things look blurry or stretched out in certain directions. Your eye doctor can help fix this by giving you glasses or contact lenses with a special lens that corrects the football shape of your eye. Don't worry, it's a common thing and can be easily fixed.
