Ophthalmologist 's  Response
Hello
Welcome to health care magic.

I reviewed your history.
It seems from the history that you are having refractive error in the form of astigmatism which is requiring cylindrical power.
This cannot be reduced naturally but can be corrected by refractive laser surgery like astigmatism LASIK.
Hence you need to consult your ophthalmologist for evaluation to undergo LASIK.

Hope this is helpful to you.

Thank you
With regards
