“Should I wear glasses all the time for astigmatism?”

Hello: Astigmatism is a permanent, relatively unchanging condition of your eyes. The cornea is football shaped instead of round. If you don't wear your glasses, you may experience some eyestrain, but generally the astigmatism focus will not change. It does not harm your eyes to not wear the glasses all the time. This does not include occasional cases of astigmatism that are progressive, or eyes with dystrophies (diseases) such as keratoconus, pellucid marginal degeneration, or other forms of ectasia (corneal bending). Here the astigmatism can change, even to the point of requiring rigid contact lenses or surgery. Regards, Dr. Roholt

If you have trouble seeing and focusing , then yes
