[How to correct astigmatism?].
The total astigmatism is measured by an automatic refractor. The astigmatism is corrected by a cylindric lens. For children cycloplegia is required. For children below school age an astigmatism is corrected only if it exceeds 2d. Children older than 6 years will benefit from correction of astigmatism if this is more than 1d. Prescription will be progressive to be supported.
