Say Goodbye to Blurred & Distorted Vision
Astigmatism Treatment in Winter Park
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 Aloma Eye Associates in Winter Park today!

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, Aloma Eye Associates in Winter Park has the perfect solution for your needs.
Astigmatism Diagnosis Treatment FAQs
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
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.
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).

Awesome staff and Dr Ward is thorough, professional and vert good. I switched to Aloma Eye Associat... Show Morees because my eye doc of 25 yrs (Eye Associates of Winter Park) refused to give me my script to refill contacts unless I came in. After 25 years of loyalty, they held me over a barrel. My recent visit to Aloma Eye Associates was the best yet. I explained I was really tight on time and they were awesome. They moved through the exam process very quickly (and I chose all of the additional tests bcus of personal history). Dr Ward took her time in walking through the results and while I was going through the exam, they were tightening my eyeglasses. I cannot say enough good things about this team.

Aloma Eye Associates is easily one of the most professional and well-run medical offices I’ve ever b... Show Moreeen to. From the moment I walked in, the setup made a great first impression, clean, organized, and efficient without feeling cold or rushed. The front desk greeted me right away and helped with paperwork and questions in a way that felt patient and respectful, not like I was being processed through a system.
What really stood out to me was the team. Every single person I interacted with was fantastic, helpful, kind, and genuinely understanding. They didn’t just move me from room to room; they took the time to explain what they were doing, what they were looking for, and what my options were. I never felt talked down to or brushed off, and that’s rare these days.
Because of timing and scheduling, I did have to wait about a week to get in, but trust me when I say: you want to wait for them. I would much rather wait a few extra days and know I’m in good hands than be rushed into a place that treats me like a number. Once I was there, I never felt like they were in a hurry to push me out the door.
Overall, I left feeling informed, cared for, and confident in the care I received. I highly recommend Aloma Eye Associates to anyone looking for quality eye care with a team that truly treats you like a person, not just a patient
