			==What is astigmatism?==
			{{main\|Astigmatism}}
			Astigmatism is myopia in a specific [[axis]] of the eye, as opposed to myopia for the whole of the eye.
			==Is astigmatism genetic?==
			In 99% of cases, no - astigmatism is [[lens-induced myopia\|induced]]. Actual genetic astigmatism is incredibly rare.
			==Can you reverse astigmatism?==
			'''Yes.''' Many participants have been able to reduce their astigmatism correction.
