Eye Prescription query.

2018-01-30 03:12:07
I visited an opthalmologist and following is my prescription: Right:SPH 0 CYL +0.5 Axis 80° Left:SPH 0 CYL +0.75 Axis 100° For me faw away things seem little blurry. From prescription it looks like I have astigmatism.So my question is if I see far away things little blurry (no problem with nearby things)then why cylindrical power is positive, shouldn't it be negative?
