Answer 1

Well, there is no "cure" for it , if that is what you mean.

All you can do is wear the glasses when you need them.

Laser surgery correction may be an option for you in a few years.

Answer 2

Yes there are, wear contacts. They are great

Answer 3

Why not try contacts? Then you won't feel dizzy at all through the day and no one will know you're wearing them. Also, you could wear the contacts while playing sports too!

There is no permanent fix for astigmatism. People with the condition just have to wear their contacts and glasses as prescribed.

But, there are special lenses that will shape your cornea, fixing the astigmatism over time. These are called ortho-k lenses, and they are quite expensive. You put these lenses in at night, and take them out in the morning, and during the day you won't need correction.
