Congenital astigmatism is a condition that can be corrected by surgery. Congenital astigmatism is caused by abnormal development of the eyeball. It is mostly related to heredity. once it occurs, it is irreversible, so it cannot be cured. However, patients can be corrected by optical correction or surgery. For patients over 18 years old with stable astigmatism for more than 2 years, surgery can be performed to relieve refractive error, including corneal laser surgery and intraocular lens implantation.

For patients with normal corneal thickness, corneal laser surgery can be performed to correct astigmatism by changing corneal curvature; for patients with corneal thinning that cannot meet the requirements of corneal laser surgery, intraocular lens implantation can be considered, and astigmatism can also be corrected by implanting intraocular lenses with degrees.
