See Life Clearly With Expert Care

With compassionate care and the latest technologies, we provide long-term astigmatism treatments in Greenwood.

Understanding Astigmatism and Its Impact

Astigmatism is a common issue caused by an irregularly shaped cornea or lens. This irregularity prevents light from focusing evenly on the retina (the tissue at the back of the eye), causing light to scatter and resulting in blurred or distorted vision at all distances.

Astigmatism often occurs alongside nearsightedness (myopia) or farsightedness (hyperopia). Symptoms can include:

Blurred or wavy vision
Eye strain or fatigue, particularly after reading or prolonged screen use
Headaches from extended visual tasks
Difficulty seeing clearly at night

Mild astigmatism may go unnoticed, but moderate to severe astigmatism can interfere with daily activities, work, school, and recreation. We believe Greenwood residents deserve clear vision to enjoy an active and independent lifestyle.

I am happy with my care. They are compassionate, knowledgeable and caring.

When to Seek Astigmatism Treatment in Greenwood

Persistent blurred vision or eye strain are signs that it’s time for an evaluation. Early diagnosis and treatment can prevent discomfort and help maintain clear, sharp sight. Consider a consultation if you notice:

Frequent squinting or eye discomfort
Distorted or blurry vision not fully corrected by glasses
Glare, halos, or difficulty with nighttime driving

Our Greenwood specialists focus on a long-term approach, guiding patients toward sustainable eye health solutions.

Astigmatism Treatment Options

At Eye Surgeons of Indiana, treatments range from non-surgical options to advanced surgical procedures.

Laser Vision Correction

For patients seeking a more permanent solution, laser surgery reshapes the cornea to correct astigmatism. Our Greenwood astigmatism specialists offer:

LASIK: Creates a corneal flap and reshapes the underlying tissue, providing rapid recovery and minimal discomfort
PRK: Removes tissue from the cornea surface, ideal for patients with thin or irregular corneas

Laser vision correction can improve near and distance vision, reduce dependence on glasses or contacts, and enhance overall visual clarity.

EVO ICL (Implantable Collamer Lens)

For patients with higher prescriptions or those not suited for laser surgery, EVO ICL offers a reversible, additive solution. A biocompatible lens is implanted inside the eye without removing corneal tissue. Benefits include:

High-quality vision, including improved night vision
Reversibility if needed
Minimal impact on the cornea
Protection from UV light

EVO ICL can correct astigmatism, nearsightedness, or a combination, providing long-term freedom from corrective lenses.

Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE)

For patients with significant astigmatism and age-related vision changes, RLE may be a suitable option. This procedure replaces the natural lens with an intraocular lens (IOL) that corrects both astigmatism and presbyopia (near vision loss). RLE is ideal for patients over 40 who want to reduce reliance on glasses or contacts for near and distance vision.

Who Is a Candidate for Astigmatism Treatment?

Eligibility depends on prescription stability, eye health, age, and lifestyle. Ideal candidates may:

Have stable astigmatism for at least one year
Be free of active eye conditions that could interfere with treatment or healing
Desire long-term reduction of dependence on glasses or contacts
Seek a permanent or semi-permanent solution for vision correction

Our astigmatism specialists in Greenwood, IN, use advanced diagnostic tools to determine the safest and most effective treatment plan for each patient.

Recovery and Follow-Up

Recovery varies by treatment type:

Laser vision correction: Significant improvement within 24–48 hours; full stabilization over several weeks
EVO ICL or RLE: Quick recovery; noticeable vision improvement within days; follow-up visits ensure optimal lens positioning and eye health

Routine follow-up is essential to monitor healing, manage any complications, and maintain long-term satisfaction with your vision.

Safety Considerations

All procedures carry potential risks, such as infection, inflammation, or temporary vision fluctuations. Laser correction may not be suitable for patients with thin or irregular corneas. EVO ICL and RLE require careful preoperative evaluation. Always discuss risks, benefits, and expectations during consultation with your eye doctor to support informed decisions.
