    I remember when I discovered what astigmatism was when I was hanging out with some friends, complaining about how hard it was to see at night with one of them while our other friends stared at us in mounting horror as we all discovered that light is actually not supposed to be spiky.

      I mean, it is. Everyone else just doesn’t get to see it!

    I have astigmatism and I read “Christmas is so much prettier when you have Afghanistan”

    That day you put on your glasses at night and are like, “whoa! I can see!” is a game changer.

    Yup.

    Less glare was nice, but the main goal was getting rid of my afternoon headaches.

    ICL surgery was fucking fantastic for me. If your insurance covers it, I highly recommend! I had a bad astigmatism in my right eye, and now I see 20/20 in both eyes! Fucking game changer.

    I heard you can simulate this effect with a few beers, and I wanted to make the holiday season special by feeling solidarity with the visually impaired, Your Honor.

    I have an astigmatism in one eye, and it only affects my reading in low light situations.
