Astigmatism
Hi, Recently doctor findings show some refrective, which happened suddenly. I have symptoms like mild ghost vision, glare and afterimages. Is there any correction of these symptoms with refrective error? Glare and ghost vision is solved by glasses but afterimages still persists. All these symptoms started one year after retinal tear in right eye, but these symptoms are present in both eye. I also want to know that is this astigmatism or normal position number? One thing more the glasses used while checking showing more clear image then my glasses, which I took from local optometrist.
