Say Goodbye to Blurred & Distorted Vision

Have you been told you have astigmatism?

Are constant headaches and eyestrain impacting your life?

Astigmatism is a common eye condition characterized by an irregular curvature of the cornea that causes blurry, fuzzy, or distorted vision.

While astigmatism can certainly be a nuisance, there is no reason to suffer from it. It can be easily corrected with eyeglasses, contact lenses, or laser eye surgery.

For astigmatism treatment, contact EyeTX - Vineyard-Blanco in Far North Central today!

How We Can Help

normal eye and eye with astigmatism

  • Come in for an eye exam and we’ll determine what type of lens correction will offer you the clearest vision possible.
  • We’ll discuss all your treatment options so you can feel confident that you’ve chosen the best option for your visual needs and lifestyle.
  • During your follow-up visit, we’ll make sure that you’re comfortable with your new eyewear and we'll check that your new lenses are providing you with crisp, clear vision.

4 Ways to Treat Astigmatism

  • Prescription eyeglasses

    Mild to moderate levels of astigmatism can often be corrected with eyeglasses that contain a unique optical power (cylinder) to combat blurry vision caused by astigmatism.

  • Toric contact lenses

    Toric contact lenses are customized to your corneal shape and contain varying corrective powers throughout the lens. These soft contact lenses provide clear, sharp vision for people with mild to moderate astigmatism.

  • Scleral contact lenses

    Scleral contact lenses are ideal for moderate to severe astigmatism. These specialized rigid lenses are designed to arch over your irregular shaped cornea and rest on your sclera (the white part of your eye), to deliver clear vision.

  • Laser eye surgery

    If you’re looking to free yourself from eyeglasses and contact lenses, laser eye surgery offers permanent astigmatism correction. Candidacy for laser eye surgery depends on your age, and the type and severity of your astigmatism.

No matter your level of astigmatism, EyeTX - Vineyard-Blanco in Far North Central has the perfect solution for your needs.


Astigmatism Diagnosis Treatment FAQs

What does astigmatism do to your eyes?

Astigmatism occurs when either the cornea or the lens inside the eye has mismatched curves, causing the eye surface to be egg-shaped rather than round.

While astigmatism causes blurry vision at all distances, it can also cause:

  • Wavy or distorted vision
  • Eye strain
  • Headaches
  • Squinting
  • Poor night vision
How do you fix astigmatism?

If you have astigmatism, corrective lenses (contacts or glasses) specifically designed for astigmatic eyes are an effective way to correct your blurry vision. They contain your optical prescription along with a specific cylinder lens power to target astigmatism and provide you with crystal clear vision. Laser surgery is another effective option to correct astigmatism.

Why has my astigmatism worsened?

About 20% of babies are born with astigmatism. In most cases, it disappears by around age 5. In others, astigmatism can become permanent and even worsen over time, generally stabilizing once the eyes reach their adult size (at around age 20).

Dr Marlan Anderson is outstanding eye Doctor Who pays attention to every detail. I am extremely happ... y with his services and I highly recommend him to anyone who is in need for an eye doctor.

Yesterday, my son had somehow scratched his eye and was sent home from school in extreme pain. We im... mediately visited one clinic that had told us by phone that they dealt with this issue, but after charging us the fee, their doctor came into the exam room and 60 seconds later told us they didn't have the special orange fluid or equipment to do the necessary eye exam. He said we needed to take him to an emergency room, and then to a specialist he knew. Walking out with the sealed letter he gave us that he instructed us to give to the emergency room, which apparently contained the name of his specialist, my son and I were back to square one, him in pain and me out money with nothing to show for it. Not wanting to spend a fortune on an emergency room visit and then a specialist, my wife and I got on the phone and found EyeTX. Never having been there, we read the reviews - which were good - so we called, explained the situation, and the very kind receptionist assured us they did this service and made an appointment for one hour later. Ninety minutes later, my son had received a thorough, professional examination, his pain was gone, and we were picking up the prescription they'd given us. And all for a VERY reasonable fee. I don't write many reviews, but I wanted to write this one because Dr. Anderson at this EyeTX location was the best physician I've ever seen in the United States. Compassionate, kind, and thoroughly professional. In short, he's the doctor ALL doctors should aspire to be. Naturally, I recommend this place, this staff, and this doctor highly, and we will be lifelong patrons.

We had a great experience. I made an appointment with the Vineyard-Blanco Team EyeTX Vision Center b... ecause my eye doctor no longer accepted my current eye insurance. Therefore, I did some research online and liked the reviews that I saw for Dr.Green and made an appointment through Zodoc. I found the staff at this clinic to be quick and courteous with check-in and Dr.Green to be easy to talk to and he seemed to connect well with my kids. Lastly, the frame selection was very good. I found some frames that I want for myself and am planning to make an appointment in the near future because I’m over due for an exam and new frames.

Best optometrist office. I have been seeing Dr. Anderson for decades. He really cares about his pa... tients and does a thorough exam. The front desk staff is professional and efficient. I love the new OptoMap technology that provide high definition photos without the need for eye dilation drops and that whole after effect.
