Eye Prescription query.
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?

Hello
This is cylindrical power
It can be transposed to negative power by changing axis
There is no mistake in this prescription
