Although astigmatism is generally considered a more challenging vision problem to correct, there are a variety of laser eye surgery techniques that may be able to offer some improvement. In particular, some of the varieties of LASIK surgery and photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) may be quite beneficial to those with astigmatism. Keep in mind, though, that most laser eye treatments will also correct myopia in the process, whether it is needed or not.

Astigmatism can be challenging to correct with laser eye surgery, especially if it is severe. The refractive power of an eye lens is measured in a unit called a diopter. A lens that focuses light one meter from the pupil is said to have a diopter of one. Patients who have astigmatism usually have abnormally high diopters. Therefore, the measure of a diopter has much to do with how successful a given laser eye treatment will be.
