Ghosting Issue with Astigmatism

2024-03-09 17:37:03
Dear Sir/Madam, I have severe ghosting with my left eye. A simple light source appears as stretched to me. Is this normal with Astigmatism? My Rx : OD : -1.5(cyl), 180 degree OS: -0.5 (sph), -1.5 (cyl) 10 degree I did a Corneal Topography, the doctor said its fine. Can you read the results. Why am I having ghosting issues ? My previous rx was -1.25(cyl) on both eyes. Iam very tensed.

Good morning Yes, ghosting can occur in astigmatism Also it can be noted in certain pathological conditions of the cornea However your Pentacam is absolutely normal There is no need for you to worry as your Pentacam doesn’t depict any sort of abnormality
Next Steps
You could get a repeat refraction If the problem continues to trouble you then you could consider a contact lens trial
